Victoria Harbour
Victoria
Harbour is the port and water between Hong Kong Island and Kowloon
Peninsula, built by the British to commemorate the British Queen
(Victoria), and is the largest harbor in China, as well as the worlds
third largest after the United States' San Francisco and Brazil's Rio de
Janeiro. The broad waters of Victoria Harbour and beautiful scenery,
daytime clear water and blue sky and white clouds, boats and ton ships
out of harbor without disturbing each other, to the night will be more
bright lights, creating a spectacular night view of the "Pearl of the
Orient". Hundred years, the role of Victoria Harbour is far beyond a
normal port, it is one of the important natural resources, and is a part
of the life of Hong Kong people, and was also the first stop I went to
visit Hong Kong.
In fact, the Avenue of Stars which is located in
the east of Tsim Sha Tsui, Victoria Harbour is a waterfront promenade
following the example of the Hollywood Walk of Fame, in recognition of
the outstanding personalities of the Hong Kong film industry.
Hong Kong Ocean Park
Someone
said, "Only been to Ocean Park, has truly been to Hong Kong". Any way,
compared to the miniature version of Disney, Ocean Park is more
interesting. What's more, there are a number of additional
entertainments in the park recently.
The first one is the themed
area "Amazing Asian Animals" which covers over 25,000 square meters, it
is the world's first and only comprehensive integration of indoor and
outdoor environment exhibition.
The
most notable attraction is the "Giant Panda Adventure", a safe haven
for rare animals in Asia, including giant pandas, red pandas, Chinese
giant salamanders and Chinese alligators, Asian small-clawed otter,
turtles and birds, and other species of animals.
Goldfish Palace
is designed based on the Chinese chest, and will display more than 300
goldfish in different shape and size, and can be an independent
exhibition hall of world's most goldfish species show. Asian Animals
provide other entertainment for visitors, including the largest theme
gift shop in the park, the panda gift shop, as well as the giant panda
restaurant.
The second entertainment is the Ocean Express, the
world's first railway system located in theme park, and walking on the
mountain tunnel which is 1,300 meters underground, the two-way hourly
capacity even up to 10,000 people.
The
creative concept of "Ocean Express" is based on the deep-sea adventure
of nineteenth-century era, retro body design seems like submarines, cars
are equipped with shock sound and lighting effects, and provide the
most wonderful deep-sea journey for tourists.
There are currently
35 attractions in Ocean Park's, and will increased to 70, including four
theme areas, including "Aqua", "Tropical Rain forest World", "Mobile
Zone" and "Ice Polar World". More HongKong tour package from China Tour Advisors.

Nice Guilin and Yangshuo Trip
First, introduced my great 3 days Guilin tour package,
which maybe looks rushing, but actually it was rather funny, we were
lying while rafting, and the terraces were not so difficult to climb, in
all, this tirp was truely happy.
Guilin gives people a feeling that it is a busy but quiet city, watching the running cars on the road during at the day, I felt a little restless, but I felt calm and peaceful while watching the quiet flowing river at night. The south square of train station which we had passed through many times, there are trains to Guilin, Yangshuo, Li River and Longsheng.
Guilin Li River scenery – the day we arrived, the priority is to Li River cruise and enjoy the beautiful landscape volume. Blue sky, green mountains, and water waves, all of these revived me.
Thirty kilometers waterways, the raft worker turned the paddle again and again to push us wave for ward – we were very happy along the way, but we were also distressed the raft worker for his high-intensity work, I wish they are in good health all the time and nothing goes wrong.
Turning several times, we arrived Nine Horses Mountain, you can exert your imagination. It is said that the one who can find all these nine horses has the ability to rule the country.
We finally arrived Yangshuo, Yangshuo is said to be a petty bourgeoisie town, I rolled in the streets and found there are a lot of inns, the local bosses were carefree, now town more, there are also many shops selling arts and crafts here and there.
In the evening, we went to see the "Impression Liu San Jie", a lot of scenes were very good, torches lit the night sky. Presented by the eminent director Mr.Zhang Yimou right after the sensational movie HERO, this culture night show, also named splendid Li River and Night Traveling through melodies and pictures will show you a unique man-made landscape of smoke, mists and clouds, as well as a brand new sightseeing and music. The picturesque landscape and fisherman's songs crystallize the charm and civilization of Li River. The night show certainly will bring you one of the greatest pleasures of your life!
The green Longsheng terraces, it is my first time to go to Miao village, Longsheng in July, mountains and plains are all green crops, we had ordered the Quanjinglou Pavilion, anyway there is only one way up to the mountain.
We heard that the food in Quanjinglou Pavilion is good, and the price is also reasonable, so we order some, yeah, the food was indeed good!

Mutianyu Great Wall of China Tour
I spent one day climbing Mutianyu Great Wall in this summer.
I stayed in the Mutianyu Village the day before, got up early in the morning, straight hike to the North 10th Floor, and then began Great Wall of China tours. Why climbing Great Wall early? First, good scenery - the sun just come out, the scenery is magnificent and beautiful! Second, the sun is not so hot at that moment. Third, there are few people, feel pretty good! Walking along the Great Wall, and enjoy the beauty of the Great Wall is a great ideal.
The Great of Mutianyu was built and restored in the early Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). Restoration took place under the supervision of Xu Da, one of the founding generals of the Ming Dynasty, who was responsible for building a wall from Shanhaiguan in the east to as far as Mutianyu. The Ming pass at Mutianyu was officially proclaimed in 1404, where would serve as an important symble of the protection from marauding nomads to the north. In 1569, the Mutianyu Great Wall was rebuilt and until today, most parts of it are well preserved.
There are 22 watchtowers built at almost 100 meter intervals. This number of tower is much more than would be expected along the Wall, and also highlighted by the partucular form and unique structure to this section.
Mutianyu Great Wall is a bit more rugged and slightly less crowed than the more famous Badaling. There are aboudant natural springs which feed a great variety of plants and trees. Over 96% of Mutianyu is covered by trees and orchards, keeping the aire fragrant with chestnut blossoms in the spring and fresh all year round.
I had already went far along Great Wall by 11:00am, and then began to walk back, at about 12:00am went to the 14th floor, take the cable car down. There were already many people along the way when I went back, the weather became very hot. So once again recommended to go early, to enjoy the beauty of Mutianyu Great Wall of China!

Over 96% of Mutianyu is covered by trees and orchards, keeping the aire fragrant with chestnut blossoms in the spring and fresh all year round.
I had already went far along Great Wall by 11:00am, and then began to walk back, at about 12:00am went to the 14th floor, take the cable car down. There were already many people along the way when I went back, the weather became very hot. So once again recommended to go early, to enjoy the beauty of Mutianyu Great Wall of China!
