Tsim Sha Tsui & The Peak In-A-day
An ideal first day in Hong Kong
This itinerary takes you to Hong Kong’s most iconic experiences and must-sees, with suggestions for shopping, dining and winding down thrown in for good measure.
Keep in mind, however, that the weather will play a role in your travel plans, since The Peak, Hong Kong’s top attraction, is often enveloped in fog or smog (more on that below). Of course, you’ll also want to tailor your trip to your own interests, including, perhaps, Ocean Park if you have children, or eschewing inebriated revelers in Lan Kwai Fong for a visit to a horse race track instead.
Morning
There’s nothing better than starting your day with that quintessential Hong Kong breakfast — dim sum – which can range from spring rolls to barbecue pork buns and other savory snacks. Serenade Chinese Restaurant offers the added benefit of being on the Tsim Sha Tsui waterfront promenade, home to a Clock Tower from a bygone era and offering great views of Hong Kong Island across Victoria Harbour.
