And the best view of Hong Kong Island skyline is from the Kowloon waterfront – the Avenue of Stars at Tsim Sha Tsui.
Avenue of the Stars is the local version of the Hollywood Walk of Fame and celebrates the movie stars of Hong Kong cinema. It is located on Kowloon’s seaside promenade and offers fantastic views, day and night, of the Hong Kong skyline and Victoria Harbour. The Avenue can be reached from the Tsim Sha Tsui MTR station or the Star Ferry terminal.
A Symphony of Lights (best viewed from the Avenue of the Stars) is a spectacular light and laser show, from more than 40 buildings on both sides of Victoria Harbour, synchronized to music and staged every night at 8:00pm. On Monday, Wednesday and Friday, the light show is in English. Other nights it is in Mandarin or Cantonese. Spectators can tune their radios to FM103.4MHz for English (FM106.8 for Cantonese or FM107.9 for Mandarin). During one of Hong Kong’s many festivals there may also be spectacular fireworks (esp. Chinese New Year).
