Hong Kong - Canton, China day tour with lunch and visa - English

 

Guangzhou (also: Canton or Canton) is a city in the south of the People's Republic of China with 11 million inhabitants in the geographical urban area and 12.7 million inhabitants in the administrative urban area. It is the capital of the province of Guangdong as well as an important industrial and commercial location. The region is also known as the “factory of the world”.

Guangzhou is the largest city in the Pearl River Delta, one of the largest contiguous urban landscapes (megapolises) in the world. In addition to Guangzhou, the Pearl River Delta includes, among others, the cities of Hong Kong, Shenzhen, Dongguan, Foshan, Jiangmen, Huizhou, Zhongshan and Zhuhai. In total, over 100 million people live here in an area that roughly corresponds to that of Baden-Württemberg.

The term Canton used in German (and similarly in other Western languages) goes back to the name of the province of Guangdong. In China, Guangzhou is also called Suìchéng (City of Ears) or Yángchéng (City of Goats). The city's landmark is a statue of five goats. The proximity to Hong Kong has - as in the entire Pearl River Delta - had a positive influence on economic development. The Canton Fair, China's largest import and export trade fair, takes place twice a year in Guangzhou - in spring and autumn. In October 2010, the highest television tower in the world (Canton Tower, 600 m) was opened here; in 2012, this record went to the Tokyo Skytree.

Hong Kong (“Port of Fragrances”) is a vibrant mix of East and West.
Hong Kong is an absolute must for tourists: few places in the world have so much that is excitingly interesting, contradictory, entertaining and worth remembering. Experience the deep sea port in front of the fascinating skyline of the city - the Kowloon Peninsula (Keuw Long, i.e. 9 dragons) and the New Territories.
Hong Kong offers a wide variety of facets of daily life: from the lively hustle and bustle of Hong Kong Island to the exciting Eldorados for shopping (electronics, designer fashion, sporting goods, leather), restaurants and nightlife in Kowloon to rustic fishing villages in the New Territories.
Crossing the “Victoria Harbor” with the “Starferry” is always a special experience!



At 8 p.m., you should watch the daily "Syphony of Lights" laser show - for 15 minutes, powerful lasers are shot up from both sides of the harbor, synchronized from the skyscrapers of the skyline, and together they form a "Symphony of Lights." unforgettable experience....
