Itinerary

10 min
Known as the most beautiful fishing village in Hong Kong. Landmark photo spots include Lover's Bridge at Shek O Back Beach, colorful houses in Shek O Village, and Shek O Beach with its clear water and fine sand.
-
5 min
Once a fishing village, Stanley is now a picturesque seaside community known for its attractive beaches, bustling market stalls, and popular waterfront restaurants. Notable historic sites include the Old Stanley Police Station, Stanley Post Office, Stanley Military Cemetery, and Murray House and Blake Pier, both relocated from Central—each bearing layers of Hong Kong’s history.
-
Murray House
Passing by
Originally located on the site now occupied by the Bank of China Tower in Central, the building was constructed in 1846 as part of Murray Barracks, serving primarily as barracks for British troops stationed in Hong Kong. During the Japanese occupation it was used as the headquarters of the Kempeitai. After World War II the building housed offices for various government departments.
When the structure was dismantled in 1982, the government carefully numbered and catalogued over 3,000 granite blocks. These stones were later reassembled and the building was relocated to Stanley in 1998, where it stands today as a restored historic landmark.
-
The Repulse Bay
15 min
Repulse Bay takes its name from the bay’s relatively shallow waters. Renowned for its scenic beauty and tranquil setting, the area is lined with luxury residences and is a favoured enclave of Hong Kong’s wealthy.
Its crescent-shaped beach stretches 292 metres and is known for its soft golden sands and calm clear waters. It has been one of Hong Kong’s principal bathing beaches since the 19th century. In the early days, the government ran a bus service between Central and Repulse Bay to serve bathers, making it one of the city’s earliest bus routes.
The nearby Repulse Bay area is dotted with chic cafes and high-end shops, but just a short walk from the beach, you’ll find the famous Tin Hau Temple, dedicated to the Goddess of the Sea. The temple’s giant statues of Tin Hau and Kwun Yam are a striking contrast to the modern skyline, adding a unique cultural flavour to your visit.
-
Deep Water Bay
Passing by
Deep Water Bay lies beside Repulse Bay and is a well‑known bay in Hong Kong, named for its relatively deep waters. The area is scenically attractive and peaceful, featuring Deep Water Bay Beach, barbecue pits, and the Hong Kong Golf Club, the largest private golf course on Hong Kong Island. The surrounding neighbourhood is home to many upscale residences and is a traditional enclave of luxury homes.
-
Wong Chuk Hang
Passing by
Wong Chuk Hang has been inhabited since the Neolithic period. During the Ming dynasty, one of the early sizeable villages on Hong Kong Island, “Hong Kong Wai”, was established in the area; its western side formed an inner bay that attracted many fishing boats.
Wong Chuk Hang was once an important agricultural district on Hong Kong Island. Agriculture flourished in the 1960s–70s, with about 15 farms producing rice, taro, and livestock.
From the 1960s the area underwent development: Wong Chuk Hang Estate and multiple industrial buildings were constructed, and it became one of Hong Kong’s major light‑industrial zones for a time. After many factories moved to the mainland in the 1990s, Wong Chuk Hang gradually transformed into a residential area, with only a small amount of commercial and industrial activity remaining.
-
Aberdeen
Passing by
Aberdeen has been home since ancient times to some of Hong Kong’s earliest residents — boat people and fishing communities. After the Opium War broke out in 1841, a detachment of British troops landed at Aberdeen and asked the place name; someone replied “Hong Kong,” a name that originally referred only to the Aberdeen and Shek Pai Wan area and was later extended to the whole island. This is one of the explanations for how Hong Kong got its name.
Besides fishing, Aberdeen was once an important transshipment port. Locally produced stone bricks, incense‑wood products, and other goods were first brought to Aberdeen and then shipped by larger vessels to Guangzhou. As transshipment declined, Aberdeen developed shipyards and papermaking industries. Today Aberdeen is mainly residential, but fresh seafood is still landed daily, and the area retains much of its old fishing‑village character.

Cyberport Waterfront Park
Passing by
Completed in 2002 and operated by the government, Cyberport covers 24 hectares, and is dedicated to advancing Hong Kong’s innovation and technology development, not only by nurturing startups and entrepreneurs to enter the tech sector but also by serving as a hub for digital‑technology startups and facilitating their collaboration with international business partners. Key technology focus areas: FinTech; smart living; digital entertainment and e‑sports; big data and artificial intelligence; blockchain; cybersecurity.

Stop 9
5 min
Has become very popular on Xiaohongshu and is now a must‑visit photo spot for many mainland tourists. Located on a prime seafront in the Western District with wide, open views, visitors who stand by the railing can enjoy seaside and sunset scenery while taking photos full of authentic “Hong Kong” vibes. Because the attraction sits right beside a roadway, be mindful of traffic safety when exploring.
-
Stop 10
Passing by
One of Hong Kong’s hottest new travel spots in recent years. The flyover shoots straight down from Pok Fu Lam Road on the hillside to the coastal highway, weaving through multiple high-rise buildings along its winding path. Passing through it at dusk creates a more stunning experience, as you may catch a beautiful sunset while riding on the road mid-air.
