Being a Sydney-sider, I miss, in my opinion, the world's most beautiful harbour, Sydney Harbour. However, on my frequent visits to Hong Kong I am always mesmerized by the evening skyline of Hong Kong and I never tire of the Symphony of Lights show. Hong Kong's Victoria Harbour comes alive with this nightly show that has been awarded by Guinness World Records as the world's largest permanent light and sound show. Laser beams, colored lights and searchlights beam from no less than 44 buildings on both sides of the harbour creating an unforgettable evening. The show is staged to music, vantage points are along the waterfront promenades of Tsim Sha Tsui (Kowloon) or the Golden Bauhinia Square in Wan Chai (Hong Kong Island). For the best seats in town, I reserve a Harbour View Room at Sheraton Hong Kong Hotel & Towers or visit the Sky Lounge on the top floor of the hotel. Arrive early for the window seats and enjoy cocktails and the show together! Cheers!
