Overview of city from Victoria's Peak, the most
famous view of downtown Hong Kong (Central) with Kowloon just across the
water.
View of Central from the Kowloon side. The building
along the water above these words is the Convention Center at Wanchai and
the view is from the 20th floor business lounge at the Shangri-La Hotel.
This is my favorite view taken from the road to
Victoria's Peak overlooking the Aberdeen area with its fishing village.
This also provides a good view of the topography surrounding the city.
Another view from the Peak focusing on the tall
buildings so close together.
Here's an example of these buildings from ground
level.
Looking Upward. Manhattan prices and up.
Here are condos along the shoreline. Very expensive.
Interspersed among the luxury and almost hidden
behind other buildings are where the not so wealthy live. Sometimes these
buildings are not hidden at all and are viewed right from escalators passing
through Central areas.
