The spectacular view of the Hong Kong harbour has made the Star Ferry a sought after tourist attraction, even though it was originally only used as transportation method from Hong Kong Island to Kowloon. A vital trip whilst visiting Hong Kong, especially suggested for after-dark entertainment, because the views are exceptionally striking and the dazzling city lights reflect on the water. The ferry has been between Hong Kong island and Kowloon since 1898 and the boats are of heritage design with hardwood decks and chairs. The ultimate position for sightseeing and to take outstanding pictures is on the upper deck, although it does cost a bit more which is not too much of a problem as the fare is amoung the cheapest in the world!

A definite must on everyone’s list of things to do in their lifetime is to discover Hong Kong, if only to take a trip on Hong Kong’s Star Ferry. So, don’t delay! Take a look at a few of the superior Hong Kong hotels and book your accommodation before it’s too late.
