🚠Transportation guide:
1. Effort-saving method - Tram up and down the mountain: Exit from J2, follow the signs or navigate to "Peak Tram", it's about five or six hundred meters away
2. Bus up, tram down: Take bus X15 from the Admiralty MTR station exit to go up the mountain, with both routes having a bus about every 20 minutes
3. Hike up, tram down: Get off at the University of Hong Kong station and exit from A2, turn left at the exit to enter the entire hiking route~ It's roughly from the Graduate House of the University of Hong Kong—Morning Trail at Lung Fu Shan—Hatton Road—Peak. Make sure to go along Lugard Road, where you can see the full view of Victoria Harbour. Hiking beginners should not choose a route that's too exhausting

📷Photo spots:
✔️May Road: After coming out from "High Lane", enter May Road, cross the road and head to the left front, continue up the mountain from the small path on the left side of the tram tracks, this route offers a clear view of Victoria Harbour and the Central skyscrapers
✔️Barker Road: This spot allows you to capture the effect of passing by the tram, which looks very nice, and there's also a British vibe
✔️Sky Terrace 428: The tram terminus, I entered with a combo ticket, which allows an overlooking view of the entire Victoria Harbour
✔️Lion's Pavilion: This place doesn't require a ticket to capture the panoramic view, it's quaint and great for photos
✔️Lugard Road: A free spot to view the panorama, but it requires hiking to reach. Personally, I find it a bit dangerous, but the photos are indeed stunning and impressive

✔️Travel tips:
For those uus who want to take photos, make sure to choose a good weather day, and the group should arrive at the peak before sunset🌇Trust me! I could watch the night view of Victoria Harbour a hundred more times!!
The Peak Tram is one of the transportation mode to The Peak.Is unique and very narrow tram and steep too.with this tram, you can view the unblock Hong Kong city view.
The Peak Tram is a funicular railway in Hong Kong, which carries both tourists and residents to the upper levels of Hong Kong Island.
You can see the city view on the top of the mountain. It is quite spectacular. There are many people on holidays. Queuing up to doubt life, especially in summer. Queuing is even more uncomfortable. If the weather is cool in the season, you can go to the top of the mountain to blow the hair. The cable car is up the mountain and it is a good choice to take the bus down the mountain!
The steep slope at the beginning is very exciting. Muffled screams burst out of your mouth. The cable car has to stop at traffic lights on the steep slope. When you start again, you slide a little bit before going forward.
I still had to wait in line for a while before taking the cable car to the top of the mountain (about an hour or so). Fortunately, the weather was nice and comfortable, and the scenery in Hong Kong is really charming! The angle of the cable car is very slanted, and it is actually quite dangerous for people standing there.
This is a refreshing way to reach Victoria Peak and will give you a new perspective on Hong Kong. prefer you go there a few times to see if you're okay with the current queues - and considering it's a short walk from the Hong kong parks and zoo, chances are you'll visit it and finding periods when it's less crowded is actually easier than ever. heard
The Peak Tram is not just a ride. it's a whole adventure packed with views, food, and souvenirs. So, if you're in Hong Kong, don't miss it! Recommended to come The Peak Tram beautiful view
