![]() Hong Kong is a place where even the mildest exploration can offer stark contrast and both traditional Chinese and colonial history lurk beneath the city's slick modern exterior. But if it's the great outdoors you're after, there are plenty of hikes and beaches in the territory as well. After weeks or months on the road in China, Hong Kong is the perfect spot for some dining, shopping and splurging. You instantly know you're somewhere special, particularly the first time you lay eyes on the spectacle of the skyscraper-filled island from the Kowloon side. Whether flying into the vast, ultra-modern Chek Lap Kok Airport and being whisked into the city center on the hi-tech, ultra-fast Airport Express, or arriving by boat at the China Ferry Terminal, Hong Kong, with its population of seven million, never fails to impress. Take the ferry over to Macau and enjoy a day or two soaking up the splendid architecture, fine cuisine, small fishing villages, temples and beaches. Head back to Guilin for the return flight to Hong Kong. The following morning take a boat along the Li River to Yangshuo, where you can spend the next few days hiking and cycling through the famed idyllic limestone scenery. From Guangzhou, take a bus, train or flight to Guilin and spend a day visiting its mountainous and man-made attractions. Take a boat or a train to Guangzhou and sample yet more Cantonese delights, along with some fine colonial architecture, maybe stopping off in modern Shenzhen for a peek at the new China. Eat dim sum downtown and head up Victoria Peak for an after-dinner drink to remember. ![]() Goodchord's Almanac of Guitar Voice-Leading Vol.Fly into Hong Kong and spend a few days discovering its diverse attractions – from shopping in bustling Kowloon to hiking along one of the islands' well-marked lush trails. ![]() Nicks, scrapes, smudges and stains to the page edges.
