Here’s Why Hong Kong Is Our Next Travel Destination

I traveled with my family a few months ago to Singapore where our kids really had a blast, and we have been eyeing Hong Kong as our next travel destination. While it is a known fact that Hong Kong is not exactly toddler-friendly—navigating the city streets that are busy and narrow with a stroller can be quite a challenge, and most of the attractions require going up the stairs or a hill to name a few—there are still several places and activities that will make the trip worthwhile.

1. Experience the magic at Hong Kong Disneyland

This is the first place that comes to mind when we speak of Hong Kong and kids. No trip to Hong Kong is ever complete without a visit to Disneyland. From enjoying the rides to meeting their favorite Disney characters and princesses, it’s a magical experience you don’t want your kids to miss. 

2. Have a wonderful time at Ocean Park Hong Kong

Ocean Park Hong Kong boasts of an aquarium, a zoo, and an amusement park. It has various attractions and rides that kids of all ages will enjoy. Here, kids can learn about marine life in the park’s giant aquarium, see the giant pandas and dolphins up close, or get their hearts thrilled with their various rides!

3. Shop at Fuk Wing Street 

Also known as the Toy Street, this is a go-to place for those looking for children’s toys, gift items, cute stationeries, and souvenirs. For a kid, one of the best parts when traveling is getting a new toy! This will definitely be included in our itinerary.

4. Enjoy a biblical adventure at Noah’s Ark 

If you want a biblical, educational, and fun experience for your kids, take them to Noah's Ark. This is the world’s first full-size simulation of the biblical boat. It boasts of 67 pairs of life-sized animal figures as stated in the Bible. Here, kids will not only get to see the various animal displays, but they will also enjoy rides such as Giant Swing and 3D Giant Ladder, plus they will learn appreciation for nature, culture, and traditions.

5. Have fun learning at the Hong Kong Science Museum

The Hong Kong Science Museum has proven itself an amazing place to have fun and learn Science. It has over 500 exhibits on display, including Cathay Pacific’s first DC3 airliner that is suspended from the ceiling. Most of their exhibits are interactive, kids will surely love it there!
