Amazing Views from Victoria's Peak (Hong Kong)



Today we visited Victoria's Peak in Hong Kong. Pretty magnificent views from this vantage point. Victoria's Peak site on a mountain top overlooking Hong Kong. If today is any indication of my future experience in China then, I am in for a treat.

Interesting Fact:
  1. According to our tour guide, Hong Kong stands for Aroma Harbor. It is believed that the Harbor used to smell good.
  2. Hong Kong fills in the Harbor with land and dirt anytime they need additional land for buildings and roadways. It is believed that within a 10-20 years, there will be no more Harbor in Hong Kong because the Harbor will be completely filled in.
