Week one: Hiking in
Hong Kong
HKLTC organizes hiking tours to see the beautiful land of
Hong Kong.
Lush lowlands, bamboo and pine forests, rugged mountains
with panoramic sea views, and secluded beaches - this is the
little-known alter ego of Hong Kong. Nearly 70 per cent of
Hong Kong's total area is comprised of open land, and an incredible 40 per cent
of the territory has been officially conserved in protected
country parkland. |
|
 |
Week Two: Heritage Tour
HKLTC takes our students to enjoy Hong Kong's history,
heritage and culture.
You will enjoy visit some of Hong Kong's oldest and most
fascinating sights, including a walled village, a
century-old temple, the ancestral hall of an original
Chinese clan and an opulent stately home. |
|
 |
Week Three: Qi Gong Class
HKLTC takes our students to join the Qigong Class
You will gain insight into the traditional system
of exercises involving the mind, eyes,
controlled movement and breathing.
Learn how to foster your qi, your
invisible life force and body's energiser,
to improve your health and increase longevity. |
|
 |
Week Four: Horse Racing Class
HKLTC takes our students to the Hong Kong Jockey Club.
If it's excitement you're after then watching a dozen horses
pounding down the straightaway heading for the finish line
should provide your senses with a definite tingle.

VISIT THE MUST SEE PLACES
1. HKLTC takes students to the Victoria Peak
High above Hong Kong Island on the 'back of the Dragon',
Victoria Peak is Hong Kong's premier visitor attraction,
providing magnificent harbour and city views. Arriving late
afternoon enables you to experience the dazzling panorama of
Hong Kong Island, the harbour, Kowloon and the hills beyond.
Later, you can thrill to the neon-dotted skyline by night.
What's more, The Peak offers visitors a multitude of
fantastic entertainment, dining and shopping options.

|
2. HKLTC students take the Peak Tram
The best way to get to the top is via the Peak Tram, a
funicular railway that carves a steep 373-metre swathe up
the lush mountainside. The tram has been in operation since
1888, and once competed with sedan chairs as the most
popular way up. Try to get seats at the front of the tram on
the right-hand side for the journey skyward. The only way to
describe the views from this vantage point is "simply
awesome". |

 |
3. HKLTC students visit the Peak Tower & Peak Galleria
Thrilling indoor entertainment is housed in the Peak Tower
and Peak Galleria. Attractions include a hi-tech
virtual-reality ride, the Peak Explorer, as well as a
showcase of weird and wonderful artefacts at the Ripley's
Believe It Or Not! Odditorium. Then, rub shoulders with the
famous at world-renowned Madame Tussaud's wax portraits
museum. With around 100 astoundingly life-like wax figures
means getting up close and personal with Jackie Chan and
Arnold Schwarzenegger has never been easier. |
 |
4. HKLTC students take a Peak Walk
The Peak is the perfect location to embark on several
trails. For a spectacular circular walk that takes about one
hour, turn right out of the Peak Tower and head for Lugard
Road. To climb to even greater heights, stroll up Mount
Austin Road to Victoria Peak Garden, then venture down to
Aberdeen or return to Central via Old Peak Road.

VISIT COLONIAL ATTRACTIONS
 |
1.
Former French Mission Building
Located in the heart of Central district, this red-brick
French Mission Building, which is over 150 years old, has
green shutters, black wrought-iron details and a chapel
added by French Catholic missionaries who gave the building
its name. It is reputedly the location of the colony's first
government house. Today, it houses the Hong Kong Court of
Final Appeal. |
|
2. Fringe Club
The Fringe Club is housed in a brick and stucco
colonial-style low-rise structure built in 1913. Long
before refrigerators became common household items, it was
used as a cold-storage warehouse for ice and dairy
products. The building has since been declared a
historical monument and, in 1984, the southern segment was
taken over by the Fringe Club, a hot spot for arts and
crafts exhibitions, and the hosting venue for the annual
Fringe Festival. |
 |
 |
3. Foreign Correspondents' Club
In the same historic building, the Foreign Correspondents'
Club (FCC) is where journalists from across the globe gather
to wine, dine and gossip. The FCC has invested heavily to
accentuate the lasting architectural merit of the building.
The interior today, with its dark wood panelling and long
bar, is a vivid reminder of more relaxed colonial times.
|
4. Government House
Nestled in a Mid-Levels' garden on Upper Albert Road is the
former official residence of British governor in Hong Kong.
Built in 1855 and extensively redesigned by the Japanese
during their occupation of Hong Kong in the Second World
War, 25 British governors lived here until 1997. Today it is
used for fund-raising events, concerts and to entertain
foreign dignitaries. The gardens of rhododendrons and
azaleas are opened for public viewing four times a year.
|
 |
 |
5. HongKong Tramways
Running east and west along Hong Kong Island, these ancient
trams rock, rattle and roll along the same tracks they have
travelled since 1904. The tram offers one of the best views
in town as it weaves through various bustling districts. |
