TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Hong Kong comes alive with dazzling fireworks and global crowds during the New Year celebrations. With plenty of prime viewing spots, finding the perfect place to ring in the New Year is effortless.
6 Best Places to Celebrate New Year in Hong Kong
TimeOut and Forbes named Victoria Harbour as the place to ring in the New Year in Hong Kong. Other top spots also promise unforgettable celebrations:
1. Victoria Harbour
During Hong Kong's New Year celebrations, Victoria Harbour not only provides a spectacular vantage point to view the illuminated sky but also hosts an unforgettable fireworks show. The 12-minute fireworks musical, themed "The Symphony of Happiness", celebrates wishes for prosperity and lights up the night in a breathtaking display.
2. Avenue of Stars
With its breathtaking waterfront views, the Avenue of Stars is another top spot to watch the fireworks, although it can get quite crowded. The promenade offers a seamless blend of stunning skyline views and sparkling Victoria Harbour, making it a must-visit for New Year's Eve celebrations.
3. IFC Rooftop
For those seeking an exclusive experience, the roof of the International Finance Centre (IFC) offers one of the highest and most dramatic vantage points in the city. The open-air space provides an exhilarating view as the fireworks light up the sky, making it feel as if they're within reach.
4. Tamar Park
Another great open space option is Tamar Park, a huge public park with lush greenery. This family-friendly spot offers an unobstructed view of the fireworks over Victoria Harbour. Pack a picnic with snacks and a blanket and enjoy the dazzling fireworks in a more relaxed, natural setting.
5. Aqua
For a more upscale celebration, head to Aqua in Tsim Sha Tsui. This chic venue offers an elegant New Year's Eve dinner while you enjoy stunning sky-high views and surprise performances. It's the perfect place to indulge in great food and spectacular views as the fireworks fill the sky.
6. Wan Chai Waterfront Promenade
The Wan Chai Waterfront Promenade is ideal for those who want to escape the crowds. Enjoy the excitement of the New Year's celebrations from this quieter, peaceful spot, which offers excellent views of the fireworks as they light up the city's skyline.
No matter where you choose to celebrate the New Year in Hong Kong, each location offers a unique experience, from vibrant fireworks to stunning views of the city's skyline.
