Sightseeing

A great way to travel up to the peak, the Peak Tram has been around since 1888. It's one of the most popular attractions in Hong Kong. Beware, it is quite packed with tourists from all around the world. An easier way to travel up to the peak is to take the #15 bus right behind our apartment on Queens Rd E.
