This guidebook includes the lowdown on the shopping opportunities and cutting-edge architecture of Hong Kong's downtown, parks, and harborside cityscapes - all existing alongside traditional temples and street markets. Go further afield to appreciate the beaches, rural landscapes, and old walled villages of the New Territories, easy to reach in even a short visit, but often overlooked. Across the Pearl River, and close enough for day trips, Macau's eighteenth-century churches and lanes incongruously rub shoulders with ostentatious casinos.
