Mountain Lodge At The Top Of Mount Austin Road In Hong Kong
The view from Mountain Lodge is over the western side of Hong Kong Island and includes Kowloon and the islands of Lantau and Lamma. There are many inter-connected pathways at this site that you could wander around and also the Peak Gardens, which are right next door and one of Hong Kong's few green parks as most parks in Hong Kong are concrete now so as to reduce the cost of maintaining them.
Mountain Lodge and Victoria Peak Gardens are situated at the top of Mount Austin Road, which although being very steep in places is becoming a popular hiking route to Victoria Peak. If you decided to walk to the peak up Mount Austin Road then you will be walking through one of Hong Kong's most sought-after and expensive residential areas.
The peak gardens, Mountain Lodge and Victoria Peak are a great day out in Hong Kong for everyone who wants to enjoy the fantastic, panoramic views over this historic city.
