Hong Kong is often called the “Oriental Pearl”, deriving its name from the Xiangjiang River. The two Chinese characters in the name “Xiang” and “Gang” together mean the “Fragrant Harbor”. Hong Kong is located in East Asia, just south of the Tropic of Cancer and nestles towards the eastern end of Macau (within 37 miles) lying reverse to Pearl River Delta. It is engulfed by the city of Shenzhen towards its northern stretches within Guangdong Province.

On 1 July 1997, Hong Kong became a Special Administrative Region of China in an arrangement lasting 50 years. Under the ‘one country, two systems’ policy, Hong Kong maintains its own political, social and economic systems. Hong Kong is one of Asia’s most important commercial, business and trade regions. It ranks as the world’s third-largest financial center, second-largest container port and number-one exporter and manufacturer of textiles, clothing and toys. Many consider Hong Kong to be the most beautiful harbor city in Asia. Whether all visitors agree or not is open to question, but few, if any at all, will dispute Hong Kong’s reputation as one of the best places in the world for shopping.
