Day 2 - Day Tour

Repluse Bay Posted by Hello

The property price of the coastal district is only second to Victoria Peak due to its exceptional good feng shui. A residential building would typically face the sea which symbolize wealth and surrounded by hills which symbolize a lot of support from important people in life. Repulse Bay has a U-shaped coast with two large hills acting as the entrance to the Bay. This symbolize the Green Dragon and White Tiger. This is very auspicious by feng shui standards. An island is also situated near the entrance of the Bay and this further enhanced its "auspirity".

Sheltered Harbour Posted by Hello

Literally known as 'Harbour sheltered from the winds', this is the place where all fishing boats will be berthed during typhoon seasons. Protected by the surrounding hills, it is also home to luxury boats of the wealthiest in Hong Kong. The most expensive boat belongs to Li Kak-Shing, founder of the world's largest port operator, Hutchinson Whampoa Ltd.

Victoria Peak Posted by Hello

A 'must-go' of Hong Kong Island, Victoria Peak is, by far, the most popular shooting venue for romance scenes of movies and dramas. Being one of the most inaccessible part of Hong Kong does not deter the rich from setting up their homes here. In fact, boosted with good feng shui and magnificent harbour and city view, property price of Victoria Peak is the highest in the country.

Wong Tai Sin Temple Posted by Hello

Wong Tai Sin Temple is Hong Kong's most famous and popular temple. Wong Tai Sin was a shepherd boy living in a part of China's Zhejiang Province called Red Pine Hill. He started practising Taoism at 15. At that time, an immortal taught him the art of refining cinnabar into a medicine that would cure all illnesses. Of course, many were saved from terminal illnesses by his prescription. By the age of 45, he is able to transform stones into sheeps. After his death, a temple was built in China to commemorate him. The temple was shifted to the current ground on the advice of a master.
