Book Description | For the second edition of the Time Out Guide to Hong Kong, Macau & Guangzhou, a team of expert local writers take a look at how things have changed since the former British colony was handed back to China nearly six years ago. This vibrant, exciting and often overwhelming city offers an extraordinary diversity of attractions - both urban and rural - for visitors. Though best known for its shopping and eating opportunities, Hong Kong has much, much more, whether you want to soak up some glorious scenery or try out an activity such as kung fu or tai chi. The Guide also goes beyond the city to include the lesser-known outlying Islands, plus the former Portuguese colony of Macau and the booming modern city of Guangzhou. |
About the Author | Founded in 1968, Time Out has grown from humble beginnings into the leading resource for anyone wanting to know what’s happening in the world’s greatest cities. Alongside our influential weeklies in London, New York, Chicago and Dubai, we publish more than 20 magazines in cities as varied as Beijing and Beirut; a range of travel books, with City Guides now joined by pocket-sized Shortlist series; and an information-packed website. The company remains proudly independent, still owned by Tony Elliott four decades after he launched Time Out London. Written by local experts, and illustrated with original photography, our books also retain their independence. No business has been featured because it has advertised, and all restaurants and bars are visited and reviewed anonymously. |
