Hong Kong 2-Day 1-Night Photo Check-in Route, Must-Visit Hidden Gems

This trip to Hong Kong was made for photography! As a photography enthusiast, I've compiled these hidden gem spots where every shot looks like a masterpiece, and I'm sharing them with you～ 🌟Must-Photograph Landmarks: 📍Victoria Peak The highest viewing platform on Hong Kong Island, best time to shoot is from dusk to night. It’s recommended to take the Peak Tram up, which takes about 7 minutes; round-trip fare for adults is HKD 88. The Sky Terrace at The Peak Galleria offers an excellent view, capturing Victoria Harbour in full. 📍Tsim Sha Tsui Waterfront The Avenue of Stars has been newly reopened and refreshed. Besides celebrity handprints, you can capture panoramic views of Victoria Harbour here. Recommended to visit at dawn or sunset for the softest light. Nearby is the K11 Musea art shopping center, whose architecture is very stylish. 📍West Kowloon Cultural District The waterfront promenade here is less crowded and offers beautiful views of the Hong Kong Island skyline. The M+ Museum features striking architectural lines, and the outdoor installation art area is also great for photos. Admission is HKD 120 (closed every Tuesday). 📍Quarry Bay Monster Building Filming location for "Transformers 4," this massive complex consists of five old residential blocks with a strong visual impact. The best spot is the courtyard in the middle of Montane Mansion. It’s recommended to visit on weekday mornings when it’s less crowded. 📍Rainbow Estate This popular check-in spot is actually a public housing estate, and the colorful exterior walls look beautiful under the sun. But please keep quiet as it’s a residential area. The best photo spot is the basketball court on the top level of the parking lot. 📸Photography Tips: 1️⃣Bring a wide-angle lens; many scenes require a wide angle to capture everything 2️⃣Sunny and cloudy days each have their charm; rainy days are great for shooting Hong Kong-style cinematic photos 3️⃣Use the golden hours in the morning and evening to avoid harsh midday light 4️⃣For architectural shots, try shooting from low angles and using symmetrical compositions
