We all know Hong Kong as one of the most thriving cities of the world due to its booming economy, dynamic culture and remarkable culinary expertise. With no sales tax, it attracts shoppers from across the globe all around the year. However, last time when we were in Hong Kong, we explored the city as tourists and visited Victoria Peak, Hong Kong Harbour, Disney Land and Madame Tussauds Museum.

If you visit Hong Kong, you have to visit the Victoria Peak. It offers the best bird eye view of the city. We took a bus to reach to the Peak, but you can either take a train or walk up there if you feel like going for an adventurous hike. The scenic hike to the Victoria Peak is filled with natural beauty.

During our Honk Kong Harbour cruise, we got a chance to see the impressive skyline of Honk Kong. But the view from Victoria Peak offered a totally different perspective of the city. It is amazing how far you can see on a clear day. If you loved the fantastic 360 degree view of the city during the day, just wait till you see the city sparkling with colourful lights at night.

While we were in Hong Kong, we also visited Disneyland and became kids again. Although it’s aimed at a younger demographic, we had a lot of fun since it was our first time going to Disneyland. The vibrant Flight of Fantasy Parade was nothing like I had ever seen before. All the major Disney characters made an appearance in colourful costumes. Spectacular floats combined with joyful Disney soundtrack made the parade even more enjoyable.

We saw Mickey and friends, Winnie and the whole gang, all the Disney princesses including Belle, Snow White, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty as well as the entire Jungle Book team. All the characters dancing and singing wearing bright costumes definitely brought back some childhood memories. If you want to make sure you get the best spot to enjoy the parade, check the parade timings as well as the starting point and plan your day accordingly.
