Yummy food that i had in HK

Hong Kong is known for its diverse and equally delicious cuisine and seafood. True to being a metropolitan hub in Asia, it is also home to cuisines from around the world and locals relish eating sushi, steak and spaghetti at the hundreds of restaurants in the city. But for tourists, nothing beats being able to eat at the numerous street markets or 'Char Sat' and it helps to know where they are and what you can order.

Fireworks @ The Peak

We decided to go to The Peak to see fireworks. So coincidently it was 1st Oct - China National Day. Hong Kong celebrates the founding of People's Republic of China with the spectacular National Day Fireworks Display. Held in Victoria Harbour in the heart of this vibrant cosmopolitan city. Tons of people went up to The Peak to see the fireworks, at the same time we can see the beautiful night scene of Hong Kong!
Perching on The Peak at 396 metres above sea level, The Peak Tower is one of the most stylish architectural icons in Hong Kong. With an avant-garde design representing the epitome of modern architecture, the spectacular tower has been featured in millions of photographs and postcards across the world.
Inside The Peak Tower, there is a dazzling array of restaurants, shops and entertaiment set against the beautiful backdrop of the city.
Moreover, The Peak Tower boasts the highest 360° viewing platform, The Sky Terrace, that offers spectacular panoramic views of the vibrant city – from the stunning cityscape to the tranquility of greenery landscape.

Madame Tussauds Hong Kong is a unique celebrity-inspired attraction that connects guests with famous people, famous events and famous times. Featuring six themed areas, Madame Tussauds Hong Kong provides guests with the opportunity to meet their idols and do the things that famous people do!

The venerable Peak Tram is, as most passengers agree, the only way to truly experience the beauty of Hong Kong's natural wonders. Tens of millions of people from every corner of the globe have taken the ride, which affords a uniquely spectacular perspective of the city.
