Peopele & Life

The daily life of Hong Kong people is colorful. Using the oldest tram system as well as a state-of-art subway, celebrating the Chinese New Year and Christmas alike, the local people have much to enjoy. The most dynamic city in China, Hong Kong offers opportunities but also generates stress. Maybe that is why this city is named the Oriental Pearl, for no pearl can develop without causing irritation to the clam.

 Victoria Harbour

One of the reasons that Hong Kong is known as the Pearl of Oriental is it plays an important role in the world's shipping. Small as this island is, Hong Kong has been the largest container port for many years. Besides the commercial atmosphere, the natural environment of Victoria Harbour is attractive. In a sense, this place has become synonymous with Hong Kong.

 Aberdeen

However, traditional fishing life still prevails there, especially in Aberdeen Typhoon Shelter.  In addition, visitors can enjoy delicious seafood in two famous floating restaurants 'Jumbo Seafood Restaurant' and 'Tai Pak Seafood Restaurant' in that place
