Victoria Harbour, one of the world's busiest and most impressive natural harbours, is also renowned for its stunning panoramic night view and skyline of the cosmopolitan Hong Kong city. Take a Victoria Harbour Cruise around would surely be a worthwhile choice for justifying your journey.

The fantastic views of Victoria Harbour particularly lie in the direction towards Hong Kong Island where the skyline of skyscrapers is superimposed over the ridges behind. The best places to catch the most charming Harbour into your sight are: at the Victoria Tower on the Victoria Peak, from the piazza at the Culture Centre, from the promenade of Tsim Sha Tsui on the Kowloon side, or ride on a cruise around the Harbour.

During some holidays like Chinese New Year or Christmas, Victoria Harbour will display more liveliness and vitality. As the natural centre of the territory, Victoria Harbour has played host to many major public shows including the annual fireworks. At night there is even a grand show named "A Symphony of Lights", which was recorded as "The World's Largest Permanent Light and Sound Show" by Guinness World Records in 2005.
