Central CBD, Hong Kong | The only world-class CBD in China

🏙In Hong Kong, apart from Tsim Sha Tsui, Mong Kok, and Harbour City, Central is really worth visiting. It is the political and business center of Hong Kong, where many banks, multinational financial institutions and foreign consulates are located. The Hong Kong government headquarters, the Legislative Council Building, and the former Governor's House (now known as the Government House) are all in Central. 🌉In addition, Central has many old and new buildings, which have become iconic buildings. The Jardine House, which was once the tallest building in Asia, is also located in Central. These buildings constitute the beautiful and spectacular city skyline of Hong Kong Island. The Bank of China Building, one of the new landmarks of Hong Kong, is also located here. 🏯Recommended attractions: ✅️Central Market This is a filming location, and the works shot by the master photographer Ho Pan here have also won world awards. There are also many Hong Kong-style snacks and cultural and creative shops. The elevator that Faye Wong took in 'Chungking Express' is right outside the second floor, and you can encounter many popular shops along the way, and every shot is a blockbuster📸. ✅️Tai Kwun in Central The building was originally a police station and has now been transformed into a historical and cultural relic. It has a strong sense of history and is free of charge. It's worth checking in. The roadside outside the door is also very photogenic, and there are exhibitions from time to time🖼. ✅Pottinger Street You can navigate directly from Tai Kwun, and you can reach it within a few hundred meters. It is a filming location for many celebrities. Pottinger Street is a small alley with stalls on both sides of the road🛍. ✅Victoria Peak The most worthwhile place to go in Central. Overlooking the whole of Hong Kong from the peak⛰️, you can take the Peak Tram up the mountain. It is recommended to buy a cable car package online, which is cheaper. Go up in the afternoon and stay until the night. The view is wide and the night view is absolutely beautiful🌃. ✅Central Pier Ferris Wheel The Central Pier Ferris Wheel🎡 is about a 15-minute walk from the peak. You can also experience the Star Ferry and go directly to Victoria Harbour. The night view is also very good. There is also the tram🚎 that can be photographed at any time, which is definitely a feature of Hong Kong. 🍱Recommended food: 🧋Lan Fong Yuen: Hong Kong's old-fashioned silk stocking milk tea. 🍞Mrs. Tang's Cafe: Tomato pork chop chicken wing tongfen, pineapple bun. 🍦Fuho Ice Cream Truck: Sweet and soft ice cream. 🍮Bakehouse: Egg tart. 🍜Kau Kee Restaurant: Beef brisket in clear soup. 📍There are many snacks in the Central Market, and everyone can choose their favorite food according to their personal preferences. 🏰When you come to Central, you must take your time. There are also many beautiful graffiti walls nearby, which are all great places for photos. The Central-Mid-Levels Escalator and Hollywood Road are also together, with shopping streets such as Liyuan East and West Streets and Pottinger Street. From Central, take the Mid-Levels Escalator down, and you can pass through the century-old Antique Street and the Handicraft Center Sai Kung City along the way, and you can reach the peak all the way. The slopes of the streets here are very steep, and it's quite tiring to walk, so it's recommended to wear comfortable shoes.
