[The Peak Tram in Hong Kong] A century-old classic, ascending the most romantic highland of Victoria Harbour

No matter how many times I come to Hong Kong, every time I board the Peak Tram, my heart still skips a beat. This tram, with over a hundred years of history, is not just a means of transportation but my number one romantic scenery that I must revisit. Starting slowly from the Central Garden Road station, the tram car’s incline becomes more and more dramatic, the skyscrapers outside the window sliding backward like a slide, and Victoria Harbour gradually comes closer into view — this rollercoaster-like illusion always excites me every time I ride! 😳 🎟️ [Transportation & Riding Tips] ✔️ It’s recommended to book tickets in advance (such as on the Trip.com platform). You can choose the “Tram + Sky Terrace 428 Combo Ticket,” which is cheaper than buying on-site and saves you waiting in line. ✔️ Octopus card is supported; just scan when boarding and alighting, making it simple and convenient. ✔️ Want a shortcut? Take bus 23 or 40 and get off at “Cotton Tree Drive.” It’s only a 3-minute walk to the tram station, saving you an uphill walk! 📌 Reminders: 1. Avoid the peak crowd hours from 3 to 5 PM when going uphill. 2. Arriving around 5 PM at dusk is best to catch both the sunset and night view in one go. 3. For the return trip, you can take bus 15 or minibus 1 downhill to avoid queuing for the tram again and enjoy the Hong Kong night view along the way. 📸 [Two Must-Photograph Highlights at The Peak] 1️⃣ Sky Terrace 428 Observation Deck The most unmissable photo spot! From here, you can take in the entire Victoria Harbour. If you arrive at dusk, you’ll witness the magical scene of the golden sunset gradually turning into a sea of twinkling city lights✨ 📌 Tip: It’s recommended to buy the combo ticket with the tram ticket for a better price and smoother entry! 2️⃣ Madame Tussauds Wax Museum From Hong Kong stars and Korean celebrities to Hollywood superstars and famous politicians, the number of wax figures is astonishing! Every visit is irresistible for photo-taking — perfect for friends or couples to capture cute memories together💕📷 🌈 [More Useful Info About The Peak] 1.

If you’re not in a hurry, you can also walk down slowly to enjoy a different perspective of Hong Kong Island’s scenery. ☁️ [Classics are meant to be revisited] Standing high up at Sky Terrace, looking at the familiar yet always stunning Victoria Harbour view, I always silently make a wish in my heart. Maybe it’s hoping to ride that vintage tram again with someone I love, or wishing this city will always shine as beautifully as this night view. To me, The Peak is not just a tourist spot but a memory, a romantic date. Next time I come to Hong Kong, I will still include this place in my itinerary because— The feeling of seeing the world from above makes you fall in love with this city all over again.
