Hong Kong Tours Highlight – Happy Valley Racecourse Travel

Location
2 Sports Road. Happy Valley Racecourse is right next to Hong Kong’s Central District. It is only about two kilometers away from City Hall in a direct line and is in the valley between Victoria Peak and Mount Parker.
How to go there
MTR (subway): The MTR Causeway Bay Station is nearby. Use Exit A. You can walk or take minibuses from the station.
Tram: Taking the Happy Valley Tram would probably be the funnest and quickest way to get there. The scenic ride costs only two HKD (about 25 US cents). Get on the tram marked “Happy Valley".
Bus: Happy Valley has two bus terminals. A number of bus routes service the area. If you cross the bay on the Star Ferry, you can get a bus at the Central ferry terminal. The ferry ride itself is worth the time and the approximately 2 HKD ticket price to see the city and enjoy the boat ride.
Hours
The races are held several Wednesday evenings a month during the racing season that extends from September to July. The schedule changes each year, so check the schedule. The races begin about 7:30 in the evening. Athletic events are also held in the racing arena.
Dinner
Though restaurants and snacks are available, if you want to enjoy a good dinner before or after the event, it might be best to go to a restaurant outside the arena. The nearby town of Aberdeen on the southern side of Hong Kong Island is known for its restaurants and the quality of the seafood. The big floating restaurants on ships are especially famous, and you may have seen them in movies.
