West Kowloon Waterfront Promenade








Situated at the southern tip of West Kowloon, West Kowloon Waterfront
Promenade (西九龍海濱長廊) is a great place to kill time and for leisure. A
large portion of this promenade is covered by timber walkway and lawns,
providing an excellent vantage point to enjoy and admire the spectacular
scenery of the Victoria Harbour. Though it is not conveniently
accessible by public transport, it is because of this reason it is
always not crowded. It is therefore a nice piece of land to get closer
to the sky, the cloud, the sky line of Hong Kong, the harbour and nearby
buildings.
