Hong Kong is one of my favorite places in the world to visit. Since my husband, Jackson, is from there I have been three times. My first visit was in 1980, the year we got married, then back again in 1996. That time we also went to China (the Great Wall was the highlight of that trip) on a tour. Then for our 25th anniversary, we went again and stayed in a five-star hotel called The Kowloon Shangri-La. Here's their website -

I don't have any of our photos from these trips loaded on this computer yet or I would post some. Here is a good recent article about Hong Kong -

Hong Kong reminds me of London in many ways. But it is truly unique and a one of a kind destination!

Wow! is that hotel lobby beautiful - just breathtaking! I'm sure you have many happy memories of staying there. You are one lucky girl. I didn't realize you were in Hong Kong three times.
ReplyDeletePretty amazing place, Joy! The view of the city from the rooms is fantastic. Did you have to follow a dress code in the public areas? Just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteNope, no dress code..:) I love the neon signs when they are lit up at night and the food is great!
