Hong Kong : DK Travel

“A dream of Manhattan, arising from the South China Sea.” For succinctness, modern travel writer Pico Iyer’s description of Hong Kong has yet to be bettered. From opium port to Cold War enclave to frenetic financial capital, Hong Kong has never been boring. This is the hedonistic engine room of cultural fusion: East meets West in high style, and the results astonish and delight. Prepare to experience one of the most dramatic urban environments ever conceived.

Mandarin Oriental Casino

The more genteel side of gambling. Well-dressed, urbane punters sip martinis.
Marathon Sports

Acres of trainers and sporty stuff.
Maritime Museum

The place to head if you are interested in Macau’s colourful seagoing past.
Marks & Spencer

Sensible shoes, comfortable underwear and comfort food for homesick Britons. One of their biggest Hong Kong branches.
Matahari

Chinese antiques and reproductions, soft furnishings, silk Shanghai-style lamps and hand-painted children’s furniture are crammed into Matahari’s extensive store and wholesale warehouse.
Metropark Hotel Wanchai

The 4-Star Metropark Hotel Wanchai is Superbly located in the heart of Wanchai, one Hong Kong’s most popular shopping and business hub, making Metropark Hotel Wanchai an ideal choice for both business and leisure travelers. The hotel is easily accessible to all major landmarks and transportation
Mezzaluna

Flickering half-moon candles reflect this romantic Italian restaurant’s name. Best pasta in Macau and a fine selection of wines.
Mid-Autumn Festival

One of the most picturesque of Hong Kong’s festivals. Families brave the most appalling traffic jams to venture out into the country parks to burn candles and feast on yolk-centred mooncakes. Unfortunately, the intricate paper lanterns have increasingly been supplanted by glowing, blow-up Hello Kitty, Doraemon and Pokémon dolls.
Ming Kee Seafood, Po Toi

Run by a restaurateur and his seven daughters, this is Po Toi’s only restaurant. Reach it by junk or from Stanley on a Sunday (see Po Toi).
Miniature Fire Engine and Ambulance, Cheung Chau

Walk to the northern end of She Praya Road on Cheung Chau Island and peep inside the vehicle bay where you’ll see the island’s mini-ambulance and tiny fire tender. These toy-size vehicles are designed to navigate the island’s narrow lanes.
