The natural harbor is quite big and long and is divided into
three parts. The part most visitors see includes the area between Tsim
Sha Tsui and Hong Kong Island.
The Star Ferry Terminal is located on the Tsim Sha Tsui side next to the promenade called the Avenue of Stars. Tall buildings are clustered around this part of the Harbor. The Star Ferry’s pier is only about a kilometer away from Hong Kong Island.
Two miles east of this area will be a US$14,000,000,000 cruise terminal and residential and shopping complex called the Kai Tak Cruise Terminal. The first portion of this complex that is set to open in 2013 will accommodate the world’s largest cruise vessels.
To the west is a large, impressive, and busy container port. The Kwai Tsing Container Port is the world’s 3rd busiest container port and is in the northwestern part of the harbor. That is where much of the export wealth of Hong Kong is funneled through, and it is one of the most important ports for China.
The container port area is amazing to see if you haven’t seen big ports before. See it by riding the double-decker buses along West Kowloon Highway. You can see the view better from the upper deck of these buses.
