According to leading tour operator Goway Travel, Hong Kong visitor numbers from North America continue to increase. For travellers, Hong Kong offers a land of contrasts from the tall high-rise buildings to the traditional junks in the harbour, and the glittering lights after dark.
“As part of a longer trip to Asia, or even as a short getaway, Hong Kong is a great destination,” commented Product and Marketing Manager, Doug Vogl, “No other place in the world offers such a wide variety of offerings for overseas visitors. Hong Kong is a proactive destination and has developed a highly popular “Cultural Kaleidoscope” program. This program introduces the culture and the people of Hong Kong to visitors and is an invaluable insight for travellers.”
The Cultural Kaleidoscope program provides visitors with the opportunity to “Meet the People” and learn from English-speaking experts about subjects such as architecture, feng shui, medicine, jewellery and more; to sail in an authentic junk on Hong Kong Harbour; and to take advantage of a low-cost museum pass.
Also free to visitors is the nightly “Symphony of Lights” show – a spectacular multimedia display, named the “World’s Largest Permanent Light and Sound Show” by Guinness World Records, which involves 37 key buildings on both sides of Victoria Harbour. It is an all-round vision of coloured lights, laser beams and searchlights synchronised to music and narration.
