Tourist office Hong Kong
The Hong Kong Tourism Board (HKTB), the government-subvented body that promotes Hong Kong as a travel destination, runs 5 visitor centres. They stand at Hong Kong International Airport, on the Star Ferry Concourse in Tsim Sha Tsui, at Hong Kong West Kowloon Station, at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre and at the Hong Kong Port of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge. Each has self-service kiosks, and the Kowloon centre also has frontline staff and volunteers who suggest what to see and plan itineraries.

Explore Hong Kong in detail
The Hong Kong guide on Tourist Office gathers the top things to see in Hong Kong in one place, starting with a one day route that runs from Man Mo Temple on Hollywood Road through the Central-Mid-Levels Escalator and Hong Kong Park to Victoria Peak, before a Star Ferry crossing to Tsim Sha Tsui and the Avenue of Stars.
It then ranks the big sights, from Victoria Harbour and the Tian Tan Buddha to Ocean Park and Hong Kong Disneyland, and picks out what costs nothing, such as Tai Kwun, Nan Lian Garden and the Hong Kong Museum of Art.
Public holidays in Hong Kong to plan around
On a public holiday, offices, museums and transport in Hong Kong may close or switch to holiday hours. The Hong Kong Government gazettes the general holidays for each year, and every Sunday counts as a general holiday on top of the 17 dated days in 2026 and the 17 in 2027.
In 2026 the Ching Ming Festival, the Birthday of the Buddha and the Chung Yeung Festival fall on Sundays, so the Government names 6 April, 25 May and 19 October as general holidays in their place. Because 6 April is also Easter Monday, 7 April is added as well. In 2027 the second day of Lunar New Year falls on a Sunday, so the fourth day, 9 February, takes its place.
