sky-rocketing mega-structures and magnificent

To get here, we took the Star Ferry from Tsim Sha Tsui Pier. Traveled for about 15 minutes by water, we alighted at the Star Ferry Pier in Central. From there, we took
Bus 15 (you can also take
15B) that brought us directly to Victoria Peak.
Trivia: The peak of
The Peak is the most expensive residential area in the world. It was reported that a square foot of land here is around HK$68

The Peak Tram
The 'Old' Peak Tram
 |
| Behind me is the Peak Tram from 1956. It is no longer functional today. This tram was placed just near The Peak Tower, and considered to be a treasured memorabilia now. |
The 'New' Peak Tram
One way to reach
The Peak is by taking
The Peak Tram. The terminal is located in Hong Kong Central District. From St John’s Cathedral, it can bring you up until you reach the final station at the basement of
The Peak Tower.
On our way back to Tsim Sha Tsui, we decided to take the
tram instead of the bus since it’s a lot faster.
