Hong Kong is an incredible blend of ancient eastern and modern western cultures, from Taoist temples to designer boutiques. The buzz, energy and reckless optimism have returned and its streets once again swirl with enterprise. This completely updated guide is packed with the must-see sights, both on and off the beaten path. In addition it features mix-and-match holiday itineraries, city strolls, countryside adventures and essential local do's and taboos. There are new walking tours contained within the exploring chapter and more authentic Chinese restaurants within the dining chapter. Furthermore, there are more smart lodging choices - a valuable addition in such an expensive city - and background essays on food and culture.
