See Hong Kong in a whole new way with virtual tours

With the world currently experiencing travel disruptions due to the coronavirus, enjoying some of Hong Kong’s top spots first-hand is just not possible at this moment. But that shouldn’t stop you from checking out some of Hong Kong’s impressive attractions and experiences virtually! Many popular destinations in Hong Kong are now offering virtual experiences — it’s the next best thing to actually visiting in person! Here’s a list of top Hong Kong virtual tours and experiences you can enjoy without leaving your sofa: 

Ngong Ping 360 — one of the top attractions in the city — is offering a virtual tour of the Big Buddha, Wisdom Path and Ngong Ping Village as a few of the stops.
