Hong Kong in 2 days — FAQ

Is 2 days enough for Hong Kong?
Two days covers Victoria Peak, the harbour and markets on day one and the Big Buddha and Lantau Island on day two — a great balance of city and nature.
What should I not miss in 2 days in Hong Kong?
Victoria Peak, a Star Ferry crossing and harbour cruise, dim sum and the markets, and the Big Buddha and cable car on Lantau Island.
Is the Big Buddha worth it from Hong Kong?
Yes — the giant Buddha, Po Lin Monastery, the spectacular Ngong Ping cable car and the Tai O fishing village make a wonderful day, a peaceful contrast to the city.
