Hong Kong has developed from a small fishing village in the 1800s into a dynamic and thrilling 21st century cosmopolitan metropolis. It is a bustling coastal city full of impressive high rises, and a fusion of eastern and western cultures. It proudly proclaims itself to be ‘Asia’s World City’ and remains a key gateway to China.

Hong Kong is a Special Administrative Region (SAR) of the People’s Republic of China. It is located on the southeast coast of China, facing the South China Sea. It is about 3½ hours by air from Beijing and 2½ hours from Shanghai.

With an area of 1,110 sq. km, Hong Kong consists of Hong Kong Island, Kowloon, the New Territories and a group of 260 outlying islands.

Hong Kong is a fusion of East and West. There is no better place to experience both eastern and western cultures, and experience traditional and modern life.
Hong Kong is a shopping paradise, bringing all the world famous- brands together. Shopping malls, department stores, boutiques, and street markets are clustered around the island.
Hong Kong is a world of exquisite, mouthwatering international cuisine.
Hong Kong boasts a highly developed transportation network. It is very convenient to travel to and from Hong Kong.
Hong Kong is the ideal springboard for trips to the rest of China as well to other parts of East Asia.

香港這個「亞洲國際都會」，在百多年前還只是一個小漁村。1842年的第一次鴉片戰爭，英國佔領香港，中英雙方簽訂《南京條約》後，香港島被割讓予英國。其後，九龍半島又在1860年被割讓；1898年，英國再進一步向中國租借目前的新界地區以及235個島嶼，租期99年，至1997年止。

1997年7月1日，香港回歸中國，成為中華人民共和國特別行政區。在「一國兩制」之下，香港享有高度自治，並保留原有的資本主義制度和法律制度，繼續享有司法獨立、自由貿易和言論自由。
