Hong Kong @ Night

Hong Kong also has quite the night life.  It's always bustling with activity.

I don't know if you can see it in this picture, but the big sign at the top has bamboo poles sticking out and holding it to the building.  You can see signs similar to this all over the place.

The front of The Peninsula.  Probably the most expensive hotel in Hong Kong.  Every time we walked by it, we always saw some really nice cars parked in front of it.  I think at one point we saw about 5 million dollars worth of vehicles.  


The Olympic Rings on this building was also another attraction to hit that was on our list.  Along the path in front of this building is "Avenue of Stars", all stars from Hong Kong of course.  

This view is along the path that I just mentioned.  It's also a good place to catch the Symphony of Lights, currently the largest permanent light and sound show in the world, according to the Guinness Book of World Records. 
It was hard to take pictures of it, but it was very cool.  The lights were all synchronized to music that you could hear from the speakers.  Very neat.
