 Hong Kong is situated in Southern China, just 32 km east of the Pearl River and 135 km southeast of Guangdong Province. The city is broken down into four sections; Hong Kong Island, Kowloon Peninsula, the New Territories, and 260 surrounding islands. Hong Kong enjoys a subtropical climate, with reasonable temperatures for half the year, cool, dry winters and humid summers. Hong Kong is a flourishing international metropolis on par with the best cities in the world, including New York, London, and Zurich.
It is also a free port for the Far East and an important center of trade in the Asia--Pacific region in general. The city boosts highly sophisticated transportation, including subway, railway, ferries, and modernized airports. The city also has a rich tapestry of history. As early as 4,000 years ago, Chinese ancestors settled on the island. During the Tang Dynasty, Hong Kong became a important base for the imperial army. The official languages there are Cantonese and English. |
