Parks & Nature

Just 50 metres from the apartment, great to see Hongkongers out and about. It has a swimming pool, jogging track, tennis courts, tai chi and workout stations. As well as play parks for kids. A large open grass space to relax, and often hosts big events such as Hong Kong Flower Fair.

Sightseeing

Arguably THE best spot to see views of Hong Kong. Make sure you go on a clear day, with a bit of sunshine. Take the tram up from Central, taxi or hike.
