I passed through it when I came back to Shenzhen from a visit to the US. I stayed in the Holiday Inn at the Tsim Sha Tsui on the Kowloon Island. I went to visit the Ocean Park and went walking along the Victoria Harbor. However, I did not get a chance to visit the Harbor at night.<\/p>\n<p>During the past 15 years, two additional attractions were added to the Hong Kong, the Avenue of the Stars and the Disney Land. However, the Victoria Harbor night cruise is on the top of my to do list in Hong Kong.<\/p>\n<p>The Victoria Harbor is world-famous for its stunning panoramic night view and skyline, particularly in the direction towards Hong Kong Island where the skyline of skyscrapers is superimposed over the ridges behind.<\/p>\n<p>We boarded the Star Ferry at around 7pm. It started to rain soon after we set off. The sky became dark. The neon lights on top of the skyscrapers were turned on. The reflection of the building lights on the water is amazing. Occasionally, we were overtaken by other cruise boat.<\/p>\n<p>The ride on the boat was about 1 hour. We turned around in the harbor which allowed us to have the view for both sides of the Harbor. This is certainly the most impressive scene during my Hong Kong visit.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3058\/2656722371_31b2af82ab.jpg?resize=500%2C332\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"332\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last time I came to Hong Kong was in 1993.
