This natural deep-water harbor separating Hong Kong Island and the Kowloon Peninsula is not just a transportation hub but has become a very popular tourist destination in the country. Let's explore with Mytour what makes Victoria Harbour in Hong Kong so appealing!
Victoria Harbour - the most developed area in Hong Kong
Victoria Harbour Port is the first place you must visit when traveling to this country. They say that if you haven't been to Victoria Harbour, you haven't been to Hong Kong. This is the most developed area in Hong Kong, surrounded by skyscrapers adorned with dazzling neon lights day and night, becoming the pulsating heart of the city and the vital link for the economic and tourism development of Hong Kong. The port consists of two areas: the tourist area and the bustling cargo transportation area with approximately 26 million visitors and more than 20 million TEUs of cargo containers passing through the port each year.
