Hong Kong Harbour

Victoria Harbour is the harbour that divides Hong Kong island from Kowloon, the mainland side, and due to its unique formation is one of the key advantages for making Hong Kong a successful trading centre when everything depended on trading ships.

Hong Kong Harbour

 Victoria Harbour is the harbour that runs through the middle of Hong Kong, separating Hong Kong Island from Kowloon, the mainland. The night lights across the harbour are one of the most spectacular views in the world.





One of the tourist attractions running in Victoria Harbour is the traditional junk, a Chinese style of ship that was originally referenced in history as early as the Han Dynasty (as early as 200 A.D.). They have been evolved throughout Chinese history and used far across Asia.
