Hung Hom

Hung Hom is a residential district on the southeast of the Kowloon Peninsula that spreads along Victoria Harbour and contains sub-areas like Whampoa and Tai Wan. The neighborhood features modern apartment towers, shopping centers, and local shops that shape daily living for residents.

The area underwent major land reclamation projects starting from 1850 that fundamentally reshaped Hung Hom Bay's geography. These works created the foundation for modern housing and infrastructure development in what was previously water.

The Kwun Yam Temple draws visitors who want to experience traditional Chinese religious practices and architecture in daily life. People visit to pay respects to the Goddess of Mercy and observe the way locals engage with this spiritual space.

The district is easy to reach by public transportation through the MTR station that connects multiple lines and ferry services linking to other parts of the city. Visitors should note that the terrain can be uneven in places, so wearing comfortable shoes helps when moving between different elevation levels.

Red Sugar is a rooftop bar at Kerry Hotel offering panoramic views of Victoria Harbour and an expansive selection of craft beverages. The spot attracts visitors seeking harbour and city views especially during sunset hours.
