With so much going on in Hong Kong, it\u2019s easy to get confused. We\u2019ve whittled down our favourite experiences that must be on your list! The best part? You can fit all of these into a single weekend too!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why visit Hong Kong?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">South Africans can travel visa-free to Hong Kong for up to 30 days! And if that isn\u2019t enough of a reason for you, the exchange rate is more favourable than other destinations and <a href=\"https:\/\/hotels.travelstart.com\/searchresults.en-gb.html?sid=cff61ba1f6b0517e76c4dbd58a10bc9f&amp;sb=1&amp;src=index&amp;src_elem=sb&amp;error_url=https%3A%2F%2Fhotels.travelstart.com%2Findex.en-gb.html%3Faid%3D1590825%3Bsid%3Dcff61ba1f6b0517e76c4dbd58a10bc9f%3Bsb_price_type%3Dtotal%26%3B&amp;ss=Hong+Kong%2C+Hong+Kong&amp;is_ski_area=&amp;checkin_monthday=&amp;checkin_month=&amp;checkin_year=&amp;checkout_monthday=&amp;checkout_month=&amp;checkout_year=&amp;group_adults=2&amp;group_children=0&amp;no_rooms=1&amp;b_h4u_keep_filters=&amp;from_sf=1&amp;ss_raw=Hong+Ko&amp;ac_position=0&amp;ac_langcode=en&amp;ac_click_type=b&amp;dest_id=-1353149&amp;dest_type=city&amp;iata=HKG&amp;place_id_lat=22.282697&amp;place_id_lon=114.158271&amp;search_pageview_id=3f294946885b00f9&amp;search_selected=true&amp;search_pageview_id=3f294946885b00f9&amp;ac_suggestion_list_length=5&amp;ac_suggestion_theme_list_length=0\">accommodation<\/a> can be arranged for all budgets, making Hong Kong attractions an even sweeter deal!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The blend of culture in Hong Kong is another major attraction for travellers. Traverse the city\u2019s expat areas and explore the more traditional Chinese territories across the country\u2019s mainland. English is widely spoken, and even when it isn\u2019t, locals are usually willing to help with hand signals and gestures!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/travelstartstg.wpenginepowered.com\/travel-hong-kong-like-a-local\/\"><em>READ: 17 amazing ways to see Hong Kong attractions like a local<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Discover local design at PMQ<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While Hong Kong is known as a shopping destination, a lot of retail stores focus on mass-produced consumer brands. If you like to bring home souvenirs that are locally made, visiting <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pmq.org.hk\/?lang=en\">PMQ<\/a> is a must!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This former police headquarters has been transformed into dozens of artists\u2019 studios. You\u2019ll find jewellery, artworks, craft, leather goods and even vintage clothing. If you\u2019re a purveyor of fine liquor, step into Sake Central to sample a selection of sake, or choose from the variety of restaurants at PMQ for a taste of some fusion cuisine. We recommend an ice tea at Garden Meow to escape from the humid air of the city and recharge.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-74416\" src=\"https:\/\/www.travelstart.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Hong-Kong-Attractions-4.png\" alt=\"Hong Kong Attractions\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Markets of Mong Kok<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mong Kok is the market mecca of Hong Kong. Yes, there are markets dotted all over the islands and the mainland, but Mong Kok has a huge variety squeezed into its narrow streets. While they can be packed with tourists, the low prices on goods attracts locals too. You can find anything from shoes and clothing to art, craft and street food.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Ladies Market is definitely the biggest of the markets in Mong Kok, and as such, has the largest variety of items for sale. While the market stocks mostly cheap clothing, you\u2019ll be able to pick up some cheap souvenirs here too.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just nearby you\u2019ll find the Temple Street Night Market, which competes with The Ladies Market as Hong Kong\u2019s biggest. This is a great market to spy out trinkets and local produce. The surrounding seafood restaurants offer locals and tourists alike to choose their seafood selection and have it grilled right there.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/travelstartstg.wpenginepowered.com\/best-time-to-visit-hong-kong\/\"><em>READ: The best time to visit Hong Kong<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yat Lok\u2019s Roast Goose<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While wandering the busy streets and alleys of Hong Kong, you\u2019re going to see tons of little restaurants with roast goose and pork belly hanging in the windows. And while they all may look delicious, Yat Lok, on Hong Kong Island, holds the crown for some of the best in the city.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yat Lok was a favourite of Anthony Bourdain, with cramped quarters and aggressive service, you\u2019re not going to find a more authentic Hong Kong dining experience! Queues start from as early as 10 am for a table, and the choices are limited to goose or pork, but both are sublime and worth the wait for a table. Don\u2019t expect any English here, but pointing out what you want will suffice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-74414\" src=\"https:\/\/www.travelstart.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Hong-Kong-Attractions-2.png\" alt=\"Hong Kong Attractions\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shopping on Sneakers Street<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re obsessed with sneakers, the latest releases and some limited edition items, then it\u2019s worth your while to visit Sneakers Street. Officially Fa Yuen Street, the rows and rows of sneaker stores here will boggle the mind and can be dangerous to your savings!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As with most neighbourhoods of Hong Kong, it pays to \u2018look up\u2019 while walking around. A lot of limited edition and specialist sneaker shops can be found on the upper levels of apartment blocks. Be careful of buying replica or \u2018fake\u2019 merchandise and rather stick to the official branded stores.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Peak<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is no better way to get a sense for the scale of Hong Kong than atop <a href=\"http:\/\/www.discoverhongkong.com\/eng\/see-do\/highlight-attractions\/top-10\/the-peak.jsp\">The Peak<\/a>. Overlooking the city\u2019s skyscrapers, you\u2019ll finally understand how dense the population really is, and be able to wonder at its architectural feats.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Visiting at night is extra special, and visitors are known to head up just before sunset to get the best light. This does, however, mean that the tram to get up The Peak gets very busy, with travellers queueing for up to three hours.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A lesser-known hack is to catch an Uber up to The Peak. It\u2019ll cost about the same as two tram tickets and take much less time. Catch the tram down afterwards once the bustle has calmed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-74413\" src=\"https:\/\/www.travelstart.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Hong-Kong-Attractions-1.png\" alt=\"Hong Kong Attractions\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelstart.co.za\/lp\/cheap-flights-to-hong-kong\"><em>Book cheap flights to Hong Kong<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Seafood Brunch at The Sheraton<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re looking for a completely over-the-top spoil while you\u2019re in Hong Kong, then we can recommend the Sunday Seafood Brunch at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marriott.com\/hotels\/travel\/hkgsi-sheraton-hong-kong-hotel-and-towers\/\">The Sheraton Hong Kong<\/a>. This seafood buffet presents diners with every imaginable seafood option they could wish for, but the bottomless oyster bar has to be the highlight.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Each weekend, fresh oysters from around the world are jetted in to be served on ice for the buffet. Choose your favourites and enjoy as many as you can stomach! Plus you can wash them all down with French champagne!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/travelstartstg.wpenginepowered.com\/hong-kong-food-destination\/\"><em>READ: Hong Kong &#8211; a foodie&#8217;s dream<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-74417\" src=\"https:\/\/www.travelstart.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Hong-Kong-Attractions-5.png\" alt=\"Hong Kong Attractions\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Enjoy a Walking Tour<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The best way to discover Hong Kong is on foot with a local. There are hundreds of different walking tours to choose from, but the Off the Eaten Path tour run by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humidwithachanceoffishballs.com\/\">Humid with a Chance of Fishballs<\/a> is definitely one of the favourites.

Its subway system is easily translated in English and there\u00a0are friendly staff at each station to help you get to where you need to be. A preloaded Octopus Card will mean easy access to the underground railway, but also allow you to pay for purchases all over the city, acting as a debit card in retail stores and restaurants.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The iconic red taxis of the city can be found almost anywhere (make sure to ask the driver to run the metre), plus there are buses and Uber. Google Maps is an effective way to navigate the streets.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Have you been to Hong Kong?
