Hong Kong's scenic viewpoints

Hong Kong contains multiple observation points that reveal the urban landscape. From Victoria Peak at 552 meters to sea-level perspectives along Victoria Harbour, each location presents different angles of the city. Mountain summits, building observatories, and coastal paths allow visitors to see the dense architecture, surrounding waters, and natural terrain. The network includes historic structures like the 1847 Man Mo Temple and modern facilities such as the Sky100 deck at 393 meters elevation.
