Kowloon Travel Forum

Hello again=P
THANKS newbie320 & poetjo and to all those who have been patiently answering my questions!

1. May I know what MTR Station, we should get off from to get to Victoria Peak
2. Where can we find a Mark & Spencers Outlet Store and shops

Thank you! Salamat newbie320=)

Vitoria Peak is on the Hong Kong side not Kowloon. MTR to Central station but it is still a fair distance to the Victoria Peak Tram Station.

There is a large Mark & Spencer outlet in the Time Square Complex at Causeway Bay. I think one at the Ocean terminal near the Kowloon Star Ferry terminal but need to verify as I have not gone into the Ocean Terminal for a while.

If you are on the Kowloon side take mtr to Tsim Sha Tsui station then star ferry over to Central HK island. From there you can either take a taxi to the peak tram which is not expensive - about $HK15 to HK$20. Or when you get out of the star ferry terminal on HK island you'll see a spot right across the way with many buses. Take the #12 bus which will take you to McDonnell Road and the peak tram.

If you decide to walk from either Central or the Star Ferry Terminal, use the Bank of China Tower as your landmark and walk towards it. The Peak Tram terminal is located very near to this.

There are also a/c buses to the peak, I forgot where to take them, cost reasonable and in fact very scenic if you get a seat on the upper level. slightly scary in places where the bus is so close to the edge of the narror road winding up to the peak.

When you are up there, be sure to take the circle walkway around the peak. You see the whole HK in less than 30 minute, busy on one side still rather peaceful on teh back side. Great walk and usually refreshing if you do it in later afternoon or early evening.

hi we have just returned from hong kong and we found that the wait to board the peak tram from the main pick up was about an hour (that was about 5pm) so we caught a taxi which was alot cheaper for my family and alot faster. there is a marks and spencer at city plaza(or not sure if called taikoo plaza) on hong kong island.
