In this exquisite guide 3D cutaways take a closer look at some of the more interesting sites (including the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank Building and the bird-filled Mai Po Marshes), while self-guided tours focus on selected aspects of Hong Kong life (for instance a walking tour of Tsim Sha Tsui and a biking tour around a lush peninsula alive with wildlife). In-depth sidebars explore some of the cultural traits of Hong Kong, including the rising popularity of Chinese tea drinking and the moviemaking industry. Experiential sidebars abound, including one on learning kung fu and getting your fortune told in the Hong Kong way; another tells you where to take lessons in Feng Shui.Broken into 6 sections, the guide begins in Central, the heart of Hong Kong Island; and moves on to the island's southern coastline; Kowloon; the New Territories; some of the wonderfully remote outlying islands; and, finally, to Shenzen, Guangzhou, and Portuguese-influenced Macau. Additional chapters, on Hong Kong's history and culture, as well as one offering invaluable practical information, including an extensive listing of hotels and restaurants, round out the guide.
