Hong Kong Tourist Spots
Contents
To many, Hong Kong is a shopper’s paradise. In the past when friends thought of going shopping, they would always think of Hongkong.
In today’s time where sale tickets are always offered among airlines, more and more people are visiting Hongkong.
Hongkong has so much to offer apart from shopping. The dynamic and vibrant Hong Kong cosmopolis is a blend of many cultures.
1. Shopping Paradise
Hongkong is no doubt a shopping paradise. From the traditional Chinese products to the trendy and world-renowned brands all these can be found in Hongkong. One also has a great option between luxurious shopping malls and stand-alone store to the bustling street markets.

2. Colorful and Interesting Culture
Hong Kong is a revolutionary combination of the east and the west. The place reflects the cultural influences of British, Cantonese, Mandarin, and there are also significant communities from Fujian, Hakka, and Shanghainese people. It is interesting to note that all these cultures retain their uniqueness and at the same time beautifully and harmoniously mixed with others.
3.Vibrant Nightlife
When it comes to nightlife, Hongkong has endless offerings. One will surely find a place that will fit his preference. Many pubs and bars can be found in Lan Kwai Fong, East Tsim Sha Tsui, and Wan Chai. Among other vast night activities that Hongkong offers and you should consider, is the cruise at the Victoria Harbor while enjoying the spectacular the Symphony of Lights.
4.International Cuisine
For food lovers, Hong Kong is one place to go. The place is dubbed as the culinary capital of Asia. Apart from savoring the regional Cantonese food, visitors can also enjoy a wide array of authentic Asian and western cuisines.
5. Colorful Festivals and Fairs
In Hong Kong, you will have a big chance to witness some festivals throughout the year. Spectacular fireworks display, lion and dragon dances, carnivals and parades come together to create the festive atmosphere in the place. The Chinese New year is one grand festival which will surely bring joy to any visitor.
6 Perfect Family Destination
Would you like to have a family vacation together? Hong Kong is a perfect destination for the family. The place has numerous theme parks, temples, natural reserves, and museums. Any child will surely have a great time in Disneyland and Ocean Park or simply take a boat ride at a fishing village on Lantau Island. An exhilarating tram ride all way up to the Victoria Peak is also a must-try.
7. Gateway for Exploring the mainland China and the Rest of Asia
Hong Kong’s location made it the main gateway to China. Most hotels in the place facilitate a tour for the mainland. Its international air service is excellent and competition keeps the fares relatively low compared to neighboring countries making it, therefore, the best jump-off for other Asian destination.
8. Convenient Transportation
Hong Kong has one of the best transportation systems in the world. It is also very convenient when it comes to getting around in Hong Kong.
At the airport, you can buy a prepaid Discover Hong Kong Tourist SIM Card. This Sim Card will ensure that you can get connected while on your trip to HongKong. There are 2 packages available: 5-Day Pass: HK$88/1.5GB and 8-Day Pass: HK$118/5GB .Please take note that prices may change without prior notice.
You can buy/rent Wifi Devices and Tourist Sim Cards on the links below:

If you purchase your Sim Card in advance, you can redeem this at the Arrival Area, Terminal 1, Counter A13, Hong Kong International Airport. The counter is open to for service from 7:00 am to 11: 00 pm.
If you intend to visit Macau on this trip, it is strongly recommended to rent a Hong Kong-Macau Wifi gadget so that you can stay connected all the time.
RENT 4G WIFI (Hong Kong Pick Up) FOR HONGKONG AND MACAU HERE
The wifi device can be claimed at the Counter A08, Arrival Hall, Level 5, Terminal 1, Hong Kong International Airport. The counter is available 24 hours daily.
Hongkong Dollar is the local currency used at the place. But money changers and Automated teller machines (ATM) can be found anywhere. Just make sure to enable your Debit Card for international withdrawal. Most establishments accept Master or Visa Card.
The place has four (4) seasons – hot and rainy summer, warm and humid spring; pleasant and sunny autumn; and cool and dry winter. Ideally, it is more pleasant to visit Hongkong between October to around Christmas time because the weather is relatively pleasant. However, it would also be great to visit the place around February to catch the Chinese New Year. During this period the place is well decorated and getting more festive. Unfortunately, most airlines and hotels also increase their rates during this period.
While Cantonese is the local dialect used in Hongkong, many people can speak and understand basic English. Signages are almost all bilingual (English and Chinese Characters)
The standard electrical voltage at the place is 220 volts AC, 50Hz. Some hotels also have outlets for 100 volts especially in their bathroom, otherwise, you will need a transformer to be used for equipment. Almost all electrical outlets in Hong Kong has a three-pronged UK-style plug. Better bring an adopter if you are coming from other countries or simply buy one to be used for your gadgets at most convenience stores.
Getting around various Hongkong Tourist Spots is easy as their public transportation is very efficient and clean. I love their subway system because its network is very extensive. Don’t forget to get the octopus card the moment you get the airport. You will be using this card for most of your “getting around” transportation.

Hongkong is one of the country that is included in the bucket list of tourist aside from the views, tasty local foods and it's history and culture, It is also cheaper. In order to attract visitors after the pandemic we can boost tourism by inviting local vloggers to make content that advertise the country's top 10 tourist spots in the city, suggest must try food in the city, suggest local stores to buy souvenirs, travel tips in visiting the place and the list goes on. This is one of a modern way to promote tourism.
The Tourism in Hongkong should open their beautiful tourist spots and should find a way to market or hire social media influencers or travel bloggers so that their product will made known to everyone. And also, I suggest to slowly open their country to everyone with few travel restrictions for everyone’s comfort without compromising the health of others. They should also create a very eye catching and very interesting promotions or discounts in Airfare and Disney Tickets since they have already the well known Disneyland like a one stop shop. And by that, a lot of tourists will book and will also be interested to visit Hongkong after pandemic since everyone is now adjusting to new normal and surely missed the Disneyland after it was closed due to pandemic.
A major and growing part of Hong Kong's economy is the tourism sector. I am sure you are well aware of the fact that the tourism industry has had a significant impact on every country in the world. Due to the ongoing pandemic, there remains no clear picture of the future. However, what is certain is that we have a chance at the moment to prepare ourselves for whatever comes our way. As far as I am concerned, I think that we should at least focus on the following three areas. Among these, there are three major steps that can be taken to increase the range of products on offer, develop a targeted marketing plan, and improve the quality of customer service. When tourists visit Hong Kong, their expectations are primarily based on the features of the chosen destination: culture, architecture, gastronomy, infrastructure, landscape, events, shopping, and so on. Several of these features attract people to the destination and contribute to the overall experience of the trip as well.
Now that country traveling has regained its vigor, countries must magnetize tourism while the hype lasts. “The early bird catches the worm,” or so is the concept of “First-mover” according to Zamborsky. If a person could afford to travel but once in a given year, which country could he spend his budget on and get the best out of his money, the chance, and the risk?
It will be strategic for Hong Kong to support discounted travel packages to their prime locations such as Lantau, Macau, Disney Land, and Ocean Park. Hongkong-specific destinations do attract, but they would attract better if accompanied by financial easements on the fees.
Hongkong should also synergize tourism with infrastructures like airports, hotels, and malls. Investment in the waste disposal and the safety of tourists should continue to form part of the overall façade of Hongkong.
Finally, one big turndown in traveling is the inconvenient language barrier. Hongkong should work on adapting English in welcoming non-Cantonese-speaking people – everywhere should be translated in English.
Hong Kong attracts chefs and restaurateurs from all over the world, hard to beat as a shopping mecca, with malls, shops and markets to fit any budget and Hong Kong’s street-art scene is booming, with colorful murals testifying to the city’s creative verve.
As a marketing student, in my opinion that may I give to hongkong tourism to help them to entice travelers to visit hongkong is to invest in Social media. Videos are key to gaining people’s attention nowadays. With the rise of apps like tiktok, instagram Story, instagram Reels, and youtube, people are now actively seeking videos for entertainment. Let your tourists become brand ambassadors. In the current digital age, we live in, content is king. Sharing snippets of your trip online and on social media is the new norm. Social media has made it so easy for people to review, rate, and share their experiences. don’t go out and spend your resources on a video that only promotes your business. Instead, promote your destination and help them gain some useful information. One way to achieve this is to create helpful and informative fun videos that showcase your destination. These videos can range from topics like things to do in your area, helpful tips, how to get around, fun facts, and insight into local places and secrets.
During the COVID-19 outbreak, consumer’s behavior can be impacted by risks and expectations. It has a significant effect on travel plans and behavior regarding personal safety, confidence, economic expenditure, and a negative impact on tourism industry. Discovering new ways to attract tourists to a country will ensure that you constantly grab the attention of international tourists to look your way. Here are some ways that the tourism do, to give visitors more reasons to visit Hongkong. First, Share What’s New in Your Area. Keeping up to date with the new developments and offerings. This enables you to serve as a source for useful tourist information and to provide insight into a variety of fascinating things that you would want to see if you were a tourist in your area. Second, Encourage one of a kind experience. Offering an incredible experience is essential to get tourist to remember you, recommend your brand or use your service again. Using new technologies can help you create innovative and memorable experiences for your visitors and, at the same time, differentiate yourself from your competitors. Third, New Culture to Discover. One of the most significant reasons for traveling is to immerse yourself in the local culture. We frequently create judgments and ideas about different races and civilizations based on what we read online. However, is enormous and diverse, and we are only a little part of it. Each location has its own own culture, and experiencing it allows us to grow psychologically in ways that no classroom or book could ever do. It is more than just viewing the sights and eating the food to learn about a culture. It also entails conversing with locals and learning about their perspectives on the world we live in. Fourth, Promote Your Country Using Social Media. One of the most effective strategies to reach out to tourist and promote your country is to use social media. To generate interest of your tourist, you can use promotional posts, videos on sites like as Facebook and Instagram. Fifth, Make an Appealing Destination Website. When it comes to researching a specific place before making vacation plans, there is no disputing the Internet is convenience. A website that is primarily focused on the target country is the greatest approach to present your audience the most popular tourist attractions. Through the use of intriguing films, photos, and virtual reality tours, you may communicate directly with the prospective tourists on such a website. Before planning a journey, tourists can utilize the website to get extensive information about the destination.
One of the most studied aspects of tourism is consumer behavior. This research examines the reasons behind a tourist's choice of location and the motivating factors that determine his travel preferences. Consumer behavior is influenced by a variety of personal and psychological elements, such as motivation, perception, learning, attitude, and others. Personal aspects include the age, gender, and personality of the consumer. Individuals first create their own drive and consumption demands, after which they create perception.
There are more reasons for travelers to visit Hong Kong, and all ages will be amazed by the beautiful place. Both kids and adults will be excited to see the famous Disneyland and their amazing Ocean Park. Visiting these places to enjoy exciting and thrilling rides, to watch live shows of their favorite Disney characters and take photos with them, to see natural scenery and unique combinations of marine life. Travelers who are food lovers and want to experience the taste of Hong Kong's cuisine must visit some Cantonese restaurants and try some of their cafe dishes like pineapple bun, sweet and sour pork, roast goose, wontons, egg waffle, and many more. Hong Kong is well known for being a shopper’s paradise. It is the world’s best shopping site with shopping malls, antique shops, many street night markets for bargain souvenirs, etc. Visiting Hong Kong together with your family and friends will be a lot of fun and memories to treasure.
International tourism must create more opportunities for the tourist to make them safe, comfortable and help them with their tour. The best way to make it easy is to make a different itinerary for a 3-day or more trip for them to choose where they want to go and where they want to eat. Make something like a budget-friendly package for family, or friends, and also for couples. Offer them a trip to different places inside and outside Hong Kong, a tour of the most visited tourist destinations, and experience their culture.
Think of new ideas to attract tourists to the country
Simply waiting for tourists to come isn’t going to generate interest, you need to include aspects and things that attract tourists to your country. One way to start is to create a marketing strategy that effectively targets your desired market
Here are the major reasons to attract travelers:
1. Seek local partnerships.
2. Let your tourists become brand ambassadors.
3. Create enticing destination videos.
4. Increase your distribution channels.
5. Optimize your website for mobile use.
6. Be visible.
7. Offer unique promotions.
The lifting of the quarantine was received with elation by the Hongkong residents, who have endured more than two years of crushing pandemic measures. At its most strict, Hong Kong's quarantine rules required incoming travelers to spend 21 days in a hotel room paid at their own expense. Only Hong Kong residents were permitted entry. These measures made the tourism industry in Hongkong greatly suffer.
Now with the easing of COVID restrictions in Hongkong what should they be doing to entice more tourists?
Hongkong has taken the first step by lifting the mandatory 3-day hotel quarantine for all tourists. It also needs to increase its marketing campaign, in fact, according to CNN travel, the city is planning to give away 500,000 million airline tickets worth $254.8 million to global visitors along with residents as a part of a market recovery campaign. Upcoming events should be boosted like the Wine & Dine Festival this November - the city’s most anticipated annual culinary event. The Sun Hung Kai Properties Hong Kong Cyclothon in December offers a rare opportunity to cycle through the diverse cityscape of Hong Kong. Also, soak in the festive ambiance in Hong Kong with the dazzling WinterFest! The city’s skyline shines even brighter during the winter months with the iconic, sparkling Christmas tree sitting amidst glittering skyscrapers, all dolled up for the jolly occasion. Marketing Hongkong’s events on social media will make it more visible to the rest of the world and will help make tourists feel that everything is back to normal.
Hongkong should follow the lead of its neighbors Japan, Taiwan and South Korea who took the risk of removing several COVID barriers making them more attractive destinations for international travelers. With this, it would be easier for everyone overseas to fly to Hongkong!
Valerie Ann Anacan
As a result of Covid-19, consumers in Hong Kong have changed their spending behavior. Consumers continue to show a willingness to spend with brands and experiences they trust. Consumers have accelerated their use of online channels for retail purchases. Consumers in Hong Kong are showing preferences for payment options that award their online shopping behaviors. Hong Kong is best known as a “shoppers' paradise”. However, so much more to Hong Kong than shopping. Visitors/Travelers can enjoy views of Colorful and Interesting Culture, Vibrant night Life, International Cuisine (as culinary capital of Asia), Colorful festivals and fairs (New year), Family Destination (such as Disneyland, Ocean Park, Lantau Island, etc.), And Modernizing Public Transport. As Consumer, the Hong Kong must entice the traveler to visit the country by media advertising. The tourism Department will gather all the new and old tourist spot of the country such as Restaurants, people, transportation, etc. They will double the Food Vlogs (because the places are already well-known such as Disneyland). Nowadays, the traveler especially the family travelers primarily visiting the Disneyland, however, the second is the Food. Food is family’s bonding; they will search or find a restaurant that will satisfy their tummy. -Jonelyn Palermo
