Peak Tower
Amusements on The Peak
That wok-looking building on Victoria Peak, where you’re deposited when arriving via the Peak Tram, is the Peak Tower. Technically, Peak Tower is not on Victoria Peak, but on Victoria Gap, 1,300 ft/396m above sea-level. It first opened in 1972, was completely redesigned in 1997, and enlarged in 2006.
Peak Tower is home to an assortment of souvenir shops, a handful of restaurants, and Madame Tussauds Hong Kong. But you’re here for the views, so head straight up to the rooftop Sky Terrace 428, where you’ll be rewarded with an 360-degree panorama.
