My parents really wanted us to experience what’s it like to go to another country and the semestral break is a great opportunity to do this. On our semestral break in Grade 10, it was really the greatest opportunity to experience what’s it like to go to another country, and Hong Kong was a country with many mesmerizing scenes, awesome people and many more.
So how about a trip to Hong Kong? Here are some of the places that we went when we were on Hong Kong..
Hong Kong Ocean Park
Competing with Hong Kong Disneyland as the top spot to take your family in Hong Kong, Ocean Park pulls out all the stops. Spectacular natural scenery right on the coastline? Check. A diverse zoo that includes pandas and dolphins? Check. An aquarium with sharks and rays? Check. Electrifying roller coasters and carnival games? Check. Next thing you know, Ocean Park is going to have a cable-car ride and an underground funicular…Oh wait, it already does!
Hong Kong Disneyland
"It's a small world after all" has never been more true than at Hong Kong Disneyland. If you've been to either Disneyland or Walt Disney World, you might be disappointed by the relatively small size of this park. The Hong Kong iteration has many of the same attractions as the American parks, such as Space Mountain and Sleeping Beauty's Castle, only they've been scaled down. But that doesn't mean recent visitors didn't enjoy their time at the "happiest place on Earth." As expected, families loved it, but some adults found it to be a waste of time if you don't have any little ones in town.
Avenue of Stars
To pay tribute to outstanding professionals of Hong Kong’s film industry, HK$40 million was sponsored for the construction of the Avenue of Stars. Avenue of Stars is located along the Victoria Harbour waterfront in Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong and is modeled on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
