Synopsis

A procession through Hong Kong's outposts of good food, design, retail, and more, this definitive travel guide will make you feel like a local no matter where you are from.

Vertigo-inducing skyscrapers that cling to mountainous slopes and busy fishing villages that proudly hold on to their cultural heritage: Hong Kong is more diverse than you'd imagine. Navigate the futuristic covered skyways connecting office towers and you'll pass over temples from which incense smoke trails towards the heavens. This city can appear to be an impenetrable collection of concrete high-rises, but you are rarely further than a short taxi ride from verdant hikes. The mix of high and low will charm the most hardened urban travellers.
Monocle's Hong Kong takes you on a fresh journey from the best dining spots to side-street food stalls. The Monocle team will also show you where to head for rich retail experiences and handmade shoes and shirts. Then there are walks to take you away from the hustle and bustle of Central into plant-filled streets where the din of the city disappears. Hong Kong may have been built on trade and commerce but it's now also a place where contemporary art thrives. It's a global hub that welcomes visitors. You should be next.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

MONOCLE a été créé en 2007 par Tyler Brûlé. Depuis, le mensuel basé à Londres ose l’alliance journalistique des affaires internationales, de la politique, du business, de la culture et du design. Monocle est devenu aujourd’hui une média-marque à la renommée internationale et possède, au-delà de sa collection de guides de voyage, une station de radio qui émet 24h/24, des shops dans le monde entier et des cafés à Londres et à Tokyo. Grâce à son réseau de sept bureaux internationaux à York, Toronto, Istanbul, Singapour, Tokyo, Zurich et Hong Kong et à ses correspondants dans le monde entier, Monocle est partout chez soi.

À propos de la deuxième de couverture

The Hong Kong guide comes in at 148 pages, is printed on great stock and has a hardback cover. Written by our team in the city, this is a book that takes in all the speed and dynamism of this pulsating commercial hub but also leads you down alleyways to hard-to-find cocktail bars and small design ateliers. Hong Kong has been hard to get to know properly until now.
