About Hong Kong
Hong Kong is a vibrant Special Administrative Region (SAR) of China, located on the southeastern coast of the country. Renowned for its stunning skyline, bustling harbor, and deep natural harbor, Hong Kong is a global financial hub and a major port city. It has a unique blend of Eastern and Western cultures, reflecting its history as a former British colony until its handover to China in 1997. The city is famous for its dense population, towering skyscrapers, and vibrant street markets, as well as its lush green mountains and hiking trails. Hong Kong operates under the "one country, two systems" principle, which allows it to maintain a high degree of autonomy, including its own legal and economic systems. Known for its culinary excellence, shopping districts, and cultural festivals, Hong Kong is a dynamic metropolis that continues to attract visitors and businesses from around the world.
