What can you do on a holiday in Hong Kong during 2010?

There are various attractions here in hong kong. Primarily there are a few main places you ought to visit, depending on the length of time you will be here for. 1. Ocean Park. It's a theme park on the south side of the island and provides a family with a range of rides and other attractions. I'd recommend this, and would suggest you DO NOT go to Disney land hong kong, as it is rather small, and doesn't have as much as ocean park. 2. Stanley Market. This is also on the south side, and has 2 main streets, jam packed with cheap shops but with a relatively high quality product range. It's also a great place to get souvenirs from. 3. The Peak. It's about 10-15 minutes away by taxi or minibus from central and offers fantastic views of hong kong island and kowloon. there is also a great, and relatively short walk around the peak. on top of this there are 2 shopping malls there and a range of restaurants. 4. The big buddha. On Lantau island, you can take a gondola or taxi up to the big buddha, and climb the hundreds of stairs to the buddha. you can also purchase souvenirs there. For anymore info, just ask :)


What the size in sq km of Hong Kong?

Hong Kong is a small-sized island covering 1,095 sq. km (423 sq. miles). However, there are currently many reclamation projects at hand, thus expanding the land area. Hong Kong never used to be as big as it is now. From 1851 to 1997, the total area of land reclaimed from the sea measured to 60 sq. km (23 sq. miles). In area, the island of Hong Kong is 80 sq. km (31 sq. miles), Kowloon peninsular is 47 sq. km (18 sq. miles), the New Territories is 794 sq. km (306 sq. miles), and the remote islands total 175 sq. km (67 sq. miles).
