We are in Hong Kong in one of the best beautiful place of the world. Victoria's Peak. It's a mountain high 700/800 meters that control the bay of the city. To arrive there you must take a special train. Only one suggest : go there in the night and with a nice visibility.

Will be an unforgettable spettacle. Victoria's Peak, it's only a panoramic point of wiew, but also a path long one km along the side of the hill. This is the best night landscape that I ever seen in the world! It giustify the cost of the fly ticket.

Now the city is under the China. In that 18 january 1995, dated of the photo was an english colony. Hong-Kong is a occidental city and i hope that will remain always the same city with the same character.

After the two best photo (at the begin of the page), let's go to visits Hong Kong leaving from his famous airport, now not in use. There is the new airport situated in the new territory, because the old was too dangerous.

We are just landed. The airport was famous to be the most dangerous in the world. The space is few, between the hills, the motrway, and the skyscrapers of Kowloon and the bay.

Other immages of the airport.
