Publisher's Synopsis
SmartGuide Hong Kong is a pocket-sized encyclopedia of local knowledge. Its unique A-Z format is packed with information and listings selected and updated by local writers.
Smart Guide Hong Kong condenses the city's neighbourhoods into an easy-reference travel companion, giving you instant access to all the key sights and attractions, alongside beautiful pictures and detailed mapping.
After a concise run-down of Hong Kong's must-see attractions, the Area sections reveal the most interesting neighbourhoods in the cities, from buzzing Causeway Bay to the older, fascinating sights of the Western District, as well as excursions to the areas around, including Hong Kong's green lung Lantau and picturesque Lamma. There is a detailed Atlas section to aid navigation around the country.
The A-Z features over 400 listings organised by everything from architecture to the walks and views, so readers can pick and choose what to see and do, whether that's exploring the markets, learn about Hong Kong's unique colonial past in the city's museums or taking a quiet moment for contemplation at a temple. In addition, Insight Guides' trademark cultural and historical focus is evident in the chapters on film, and music, dance and theatre. Sections on hotels, essential information and transport help you make the most of their visit.
