Hong Kong Victoria Peak

Victoria Peak at 552 m (1,811 ft) is the highest mountain on Hong Kong Island, though not in Hong Kong.  Fondly known as The Peak to the locals, Victoria Peak is a highly popular tourist attraction which offers fabulous views over Central, Victoria Harbour as well as the surrounding islands.

The view from Victoria Peak mid level Stubbs Road Lookout is narrower than from the Peak, but you can see the buildings clearly.


For those who would like to visit the upper levels of Victoria Peak, the Peak Tramway, a funicular railway in Hong Kong, provides the most direct route and offers wonderful views of the harbour and skyscrapers of Hong Kong.

If you would like to enjoy the sunset up at Victoria Peak upper level, you can enjoy a nice romantic dinner where you can later absorb the awesome night view from the Peak.
