Travelers and Activities

Hong Kong for architecture enthusiasts

Unlike its colonial origins, when Hong Kong consisted only of a few fishermen's huts, it is now considered one of the most architecturally exciting cities in Asia. Thanks to the economic rise, many old houses with poor equipment could be demolished and replaced by modern high-rise buildings. Today, traditional Chinese influences are rarely evident. In the interiors the rules of Feng Shui are usually strictly observed, which is probably also noticeable in the furnishing of your holiday home.
