Preface

• Welcome to your first taste of this unique,
  fast-paced, dynamic and contrast-filled city.
  Hong Kong has one of the world's most dramatic
  harbours, an incredible range of shopping,
  terrific   restaurants, fun, varied
  transportation and breathtaking views.
  Skyscrapers dominate Hong Kong Island and the
  Kowloon Peninsula across the harbour but much of
  theNew Territories and more than 260 outlying
  islands remains rural farmland and tranquil
  fishing villages. A small place that lives large,
  Hong Kong totals just 1,100 square kilometres--
  so it's easy to get around and see a lot in a
  short time. The Essential guide, published by the
  Hong Kong Tourist Association (HKTA), helps you
  get the most out of your Hong Kong visit with an
  insider's view of local sights, details on
  entertainment, nightlife and activities, a
  how-toguide for ordering local cuisine, shopping
  tips, and detailed maps to help you get where
  you're going. Up front, there's a guide to what's
  happening this month in the worlds of arts,
  events and Chinese festivals. The HKTA is the
  official government tourist organization,
  representing the city's entire tourism industry.
  While the  Essential guide is designed to provide
  you with highlights of the Hong Kong experience,
  the HKTA also produces a series of free brochures
  to help you further explore the city.

  before dawn. If they look clean and the food

  breakfast or as a late-night snack and usually
  includes meat or fish and vegetables.
