A General Look of Hong Kong

Peak Tram Route& Victoria Peak
Peak Tram is like the most excited things in the world. Pulled by steel cables, the tram climbs 373 meters. It's so steep that the buildings you pass look like they're leaning at a 45° angle! Getting there is an unforgettable trip. Surely you'll love this experience. Looking down from the Victoria Peak, Peak you'll be amazed by the spectacular view of the world-famous Victoria Harbor and Kowloon, the surrounding city skyline, towering skyscrapers and peaceful green hillsides.
