Islands of Hong Kong. Though Hong Kong is very congested with huge skyscrapers yet
it has still maintained its natural beauty that is, its greenery in the surroundings and
it is also called the city of life because even at the mid-night or after that you could
see people hanging out on streets & shopping at late naight market's.

than 100 years by British but than on 1st July 1997, Hong Kong was handed over to China
& today Hong Kong is ruled by China yet it is said that Hong Kong will be following
the same rules for another 50 years there won't be any changes made. Now it is said that
