Hong Kong, China<br />
Hong Kong is the world’s most vertical<br />
city where Chinese traditions meet<br />
modern international capitalism. It is<br />
famous for banking, custom-made suits<br />
and luxury-brand shopping. On a quick<br />
tour of the city, it seems there are Gucci,<br />
Prada and Chanel boutiques around<br />
every corner. There also are countless<br />
stores selling aquatic and land animal<br />
and plant parts for the table and medicine<br />
chest. More commerce thrives in<br />
the huge industrial port where rows of<br />
containers stretch as far as the eye can<br />
see. Highlights are shopping, a meal of<br />
dim sum in a café packed with hungry<br />
locals, touring on HOHO buses, crossing<br />
the bay to Kowloon on the historic<br />
Star Ferry, riding the world’s longest escalator<br />
through bustling neighborhoods,<br />
and taking the tram to the top of Victoria<br />
Peak for spectacular city views.<br />
