Buy tickets for popular attractions online to skip the queue; some close one day a week.
Opening hours: daily, 06:00–23:00. It opens every day of the week. Many small businesses close for a few days around Lunar New Year and may shut early or not open during typhoons and black rainstorms, so check the latest news before you set off. Phone: 2200 0217. Hong Kong numbers have eight digits; from abroad, dial +852 first. Its website is westk.hk, which may show prices, details of what it offers or online booking.

Yau Ma Tei is part of the Yau Tsim Mong District in Kowloon. Kowloon is densely packed: Nathan Road runs north from Tsim Sha Tsui towards Prince Edward, lined along with its side streets by shops, restaurants and upstairs businesses, and most places are a few minutes' walk from an MTR station. Mong Kok's street markets, Sham Shui Po's electronics and fabric streets and Kowloon City's Thai restaurants are familiar landmarks for shopping and eating. Yau Ma Tei's Temple Street night market comes alive after dark, while the nearby fruit market is busiest before dawn.

A lovely district especially when the weather is good. Lots of green spaces, a million dollar view and some museums as well. A great place to spend a day on the weekend and watch the sunset.

West Kowloon Cultural District is a gem. Spacious, open and a completely delightful place to sit , relax and enjoy the panoramic views of Hong Kong. Take the MTR to Kowloon Station and make your way to and under and past the Ritz Carlton hotel. Walk another 5-8 minutes and you will arrive at the promenade. There are plenty of places to sit down and they also have plenty of food trucks selling drinks and food. It's probably the most spectacular picnic area in the world and it's even prettier at night.

The West Kowloon Cultural District is a fantastic place to visit, especially if you enjoy open spaces and waterfront walks. It’s a huge park area with wide lawns, long promenades, and plenty of room to stroll, relax, or just sit and enjoy the view of Victoria Harbour. The district is also home to several major cultural venues, museums, and performance spaces, along with public art and modern architecture scattered throughout. Even if you’re not visiting a museum, the area itself is worth exploring.

A new cultural scenic spot in Hong Kong you should not miss. Quality museums, grasslands, cafes, food trucks, cycling, jogging, picnics where you can spend a whole afternoon, with a stunning concluding sunset if you are lucky.
