North Point

North Point is one of Hong Kong Island's most lived-in neighbourhoods, where tenement blocks, wet markets, and dried-seafood shops sit in the shadow of new harbourfront towers. It's also a transit crossroads: the district's <cite index="5-1">MTR station is on the Island line and the western terminus of the Tseung Kwan O line</cite>, while its historic ferry pier still sends boats across the harbour to Kowloon.

Getting thereMost visitors reach North Point via the MTR, riding the Island Line or Tseung Kwan O Line directly into North Point Station, which sits at the district's centre with exits onto King's Road and the ferry pier. There is no direct rail link from Hong Kong International Airport (HKG); the reliable route is the Airport Express into the city centre (Hong Kong or Central Station), then a short MTR transfer onward to North Point, or a bus from the airport's regional bus hub for those wanting a single-seat ride.
How long to stayA half-day to full day is enough to cover North Point's tram ride, waterfront promenade, ferry pier, and market streets at an easy pace.
