Hong Kong, officially called the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, is located China's south coast. The 1104 sq. km land area can be primarily divided into 3 areas: Hong Kong Island, Kowloon and New Territories.
Hong Kong's terrain is hilly to mountainous with steep slopes, less than only 25% of the landmass is developed, and about 40% of the remaining land area is reserved as country parks and nature reserves. Most of the territory's urban development exists on Kowloon, Hong Kong Island and in scattered settlements throughout the New Territories.
As you can see from the above map, Hong Kong's long, irregular and curvaceous coastline also affords the territory with many bays, rivers and beaches, and that is why Hong Kong people can enjoy fresh and cheap seafood.
If you have to point out Hong Kong on a world map, it will be a tiny little point that you can hardly see!
Nevertheless, this small piece of land has everything you need, including countless world's most outstanding infrastructures, services, as well as spectacular views and monuments.
