Sited just to the north, Kowloon is a densely popular place and enjoys a scenic peninsula setting, where its buzzing Tsim Sha Tsui area has become something of a tourist hotspot. Kowloon is a very modern part of Hong Kong and is filled with towering skyscrapers and waterfront views.

The northerly New Territories encompasses just over 88 percent of the entire Hong Kong region and officially comprises the 234 Outlying Islands, which includes Lantau.

The majority of travellers won't really need much more than a simple map of the area, and those provided by the Hong Kong Tourist Board (HKTB) are usually more than adequate for most.
