Hong Island
During the Second World War, the British feared that Japan would invade Hong Kong, so they built large-scale defensive works such as howitzers and machine gun nests. Hong Kong was a British Crown colony until 1997. Today, it is a special administrative region of China.
Hong Kong is a huge city, and there are many great things to do there. But there are also things that you should know about the city before you go.It is important to understand the culture of Hong Kong before you visit. You can get lost if you don't understand the language. You should also be prepared for hot weather. You should also wear a two-piece swimming suit. And don't forget to pack a snack. You can get snacks from a barbecue dinner.
The best way to get around Hong Kong is by using the MTR subway system. It is one of the most efficient metro systems in the world. You can get from one side of the city to the other in less than ten minutes. You can also take the Star Ferry for a fantastic view of the city's skyline. The Star Ferry has been making 10-minute crossings since 1880.
If you're interested in wildlife, you should head to the Tai Mo Shan mountain range. This mountain range offers hiking paths that run across the steep hills and cross real jungle. You can also visit the Bronze Buddha, the world's largest seated Buddha statue.
Another thing to consider when visiting Hong Kong is that it is one of the most densely populated cities in the world. The population is a little more than 7.5 million people, and it is ranked between 2nd and 3rd in the world for population density. Hong Kong is also one of the largest cities in the world for skyscrapers. There are twice as many skyscrapers in Hong Kong as in New York City. You can also find the world's longest outdoor escalator.
If you're planning on visiting the island, you should also know that there are 24 country parks. The parks are designed for nature conservation and outdoor education. You can also visit the Discovery Bay Mountain, which is a simulated natural wonderland. There are also hiking paths that span historic villages and rivers.
You can also get to Hong Island by taking a day trip. You can organize your trip from Ao Nang beach or other locations in Thailand. You can also go on a snorkeling tour. You can also kite surf on Lantau Island.
The best time to go to Hong Island is from the end of December until the beginning of April. The weather can be unpredictable during this time of year, so make sure to plan your trip well. You will need to bring 300 BAHT in cash with you when you visit the national park.
If you plan on going on a day trip to Hong Island, it is important to remember that you should pay an additional fee for the national park. This fee is 200 Baht per person.
