Tour Overview

Join us on an exciting adventure as we examine Hong Kong’s vital role in the Chinese economy. Explore the dynamic sites that highlight Hong Kong’s role as a major international financial center and gateway to mainland China.

The renowned Hong Kong Stock Exchange (HKeX), the heartbeat of the financial industry, is where our journey starts. Take in the thrilling atmosphere as investors and traders come together to shape the economic future of China, not only in Hong Kong. Discover the long history and significant function of HKeX in boosting global investment and fostering economic expansion.

We then travel to Pedder's Wharf, a historic riverside area that saw the emergence of Hong Kong as a major international commerce hub. Learn how Pedder's Wharf helped to establish Hong Kong as a global center of commerce by enabling trade between the East and the West.

Our trip comes to an end at the Hong Kong West Kowloon Station, a modern masterpiece that skillfully incorporates Hong Kong's unique "One Land, Two Checkpoints" arrangement. Observe firsthand the effective co-location of immigration and customs facilities between the Chinese mainland and Hong Kong, showing the convergence of two distinct legal systems.
