You haven't really seen Hong Kong until you've seen it from the Sky Terrace on Victoria Peak - which humbles the city's tall skyscrapers.
On Tuessday morning, we travel to the peak by first taking the ferry from Kowloon to the Central area of Hong Kong Island. It was a fun ride - and again, we were blessed with amazing weather. Then you take a bus to the Peak Tram Station and take a tram to the top. This was also fun.
One of the things that really struck out at me was just how tall the buildings here are; bigger than back in Toronto for sure. While there are many generically designed buildings, like in Toronto, there are also many buildings with cool architecture.
And seeing it all from the peak is just the best way to experience Hong Kong's state of development. I only wished we could've come up at night.
We end our visit with lunch at the Sky Terrace's sushi restaurant. It was a bit pricy - but the view made it worth it. And how was the sushi? Put it this way: you pay for the view.
