Hong Kong packs one of the world's great skylines, a deep harbour, and surprisingly wild green hills into a compact territory on China's south coast. Days move between rooftop bars and dim sum halls, Star Ferry crossings and mountain trails, with some of the best food and public transport anywhere. A global finance hub, it hosts a steady run of major conferences and events year-round.
