The Ritz-Carlton Hotel & Ozone Bar 丽思卡尔顿
The first thing to say about the Ritz-Carlton Hotel is for a building this tall and noticeable you’d think it would be easier to find the entrance. I am not sure exactly how this works but apparently the entrance is up a few floors from ground level. The garage is ground level and you may have to take a taxi to the entrance, despite how geographically close to the building you are.
On another note, get ready to open your wallet when you go to the Ozone Bar. Everyone who goes here undoubtable goes for the views of the city, which are beautiful. The Ozone Bar is located on the 118th and is the tallest bar to date in the world. It is a very upscale bar with drinks nearing $30 a glass (USD). On the other hand, it is the world’s tallest bar so it might be worth it to go there just to have a drink enjoy the sights and leave. Think of the $30 drink as an entrance ticket.
Disney Hong Kong 迪士尼
For Disney Fans this is undoubtably a must do. Hong Kong’s Disney is smaller than the Disney in Orlando. However, it is very similar to other Disney Worlds that I have been to. They have a firework show at 9pm everyday which is very nice. Just before the firework show they might do a princess themes parade down the main street of Disney World.
If they use a snow effect for the parade do not try to catch the snowflakes on your tongue… it is not real snow it is soap (not important how I know that).
I highly advise taking the subway to Disney. There is a line designated solely to Disney in Hong Kong. The subway cars on the Disney line are very beautiful and completely “Disney-ed Out”. The subway will be a great introduction to Disney Hong Kong. It is also about 4 times more expensive than a regular subway ticket but I guess they’ve got to maintain the subway somehow.
