Aberdeen Fishing Village Hong Kong

During the half day Hong Kong city tour, we were brought to some of the Hong Kong tourist attractions including Aberdeen Fishing Village in Hong Kong.  Aberdeen is a Hong Kong tourist attraction well known for its floating seafood restaurants, the most popular being Jumbo Floating Restaurant which looks like an imperial palace in China.
