Closest Hotels to Victoria Peak (Tai Ping Shan):
At 552m (1514ft) above sea level, Victoria Peak is the most conspicuous landmark in Hong Kong. The Peak was rarely visited until 1888, the year the Peak Tramway opened, and its popularity has risen steadily since. Today, it is home to Hong Kong’s wealthiest executives and bankers who favour the rarefied, natural surroundings. The view from the top is breathtaking even offering views of Macau and mainland China on a clear day. There are many restaurants and attractions, including a Madame Tussaud’s Wax Museum in the Peak Galleria at the summit. Walking trails allow visitors to explore The Peak’s natural beauty, including forests of bamboo and fern, stunted Chinese pines and sightings of birds, such as magpies, goshawks and kites.
