  • When Is the Best Time to Go to Hong Kong?
    Page 1 of 98 Chris’ Copyrights @ 2011 When Is The Best Time To Go To Hong Kong? Winter Season (December - March) is the most relaxing and comfortable time to go to Hong Kong but besides the weather, there's little else to do since the "Sale Season" occurs during Summer. There are some sales during Christmas & Chinese New Year but 90% of the clothes are for winter. Hong Kong can get very foggy during winter, as such, visit to the Peak is a hit-or-miss affair. A foggy bird's eye view of HK isn't really nice. Summer Season (May - October) is similar to Manila's weather, very hot but moving around in Hong Kong can get extra uncomfortable because of the high humidity which gives the "sticky" feeling. Hong Kong's rainy season also falls on their summer, July & August has the highest rainfall count and the typhoons also arrive in these months. The Sale / Shopping Festival is from the start of July to the start of September. If the sky is clear, the view from the Peak is great. Avoid going to Hong Kong when there are large-scale exhibitions or ongoing tournaments like the Hong Kong Sevens Rugby Tournament because hotel prices will be significantly higher. CUSTOMS & DUTY FREE ALLOWANCES & RESTRICTIONS • Currency - No restrictions • Tobacco - 19 cigarettes or 1 cigar or 25 grams of other manufactured tobacco • Liquor - 1 bottle of wine or spirits • Perfume - 60ml of perfume & 250 ml of eau de toilette • Cameras - No restrictions • Film - Reasonable for personal use • Gifts - Reasonable amount • Agricultural Items - Refer to consulate Note: • If arriving from Macau, duty-free imports for Macau residents are limited to half the above cigarette, cigar & tobacco allowance • Aircraft crew & passengers in direct transit via Hong Kong are limited to 20 cigarettes or 57 grams of pipe tobacco.

    Designing Victoria Harbour: Integrating, Improving, and Facilitating Marine Activities By: Brian Berard, Jarrad Fallon, Santiago Lora, Alexander Muir, Eric Rosendahl, Lucas Scotta, Alexander Wong, Becky Yang CXP-1006 Designing Victoria Harbour: Integrating, Improving, and Facilitating Marine Activities An Interactive Qualifying Project Report Submitted to the Faculty of WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science In cooperation with Designing Hong Kong, Ltd., Hong Kong Submitted on March 5, 2010 Sponsoring Agencies: Designing Hong Kong, Ltd. Harbour Business Forum On-Site Liaison: Paul Zimmerman, Convener of Designing Hong Kong Harbour District Submitted by: Brian Berard Eric Rosendahl Jarrad Fallon Lucas Scotta Santiago Lora Alexander Wong Alexander Muir Becky Yang Submitted to: Project Advisor: Creighton Peet, WPI Professor Project Co-advisor: Andrew Klein, WPI Assistant Professor Project Co-advisor: Kent Rissmiller, WPI Professor Abstract Victoria Harbour is one of Hong Kong‟s greatest assets; however, the balance between recreational and commercial uses of the harbour favours commercial uses. Our report, prepared for Designing Hong Kong Ltd., examines this imbalance from the marine perspective. We audited the 50km of waterfront twice and conducted interviews with major stakeholders to assess necessary improvements to land/water interfaces and to provide recommendations on improvements to the land/water interfaces with the goal of making Victoria Harbour a truly “living” harbour. ii Acknowledgements Our team would like to thank the many people that helped us over the course of this project. First, we would like to thank our sponsor, Paul Zimmerman, for his help and dedication throughout our project and for providing all of the resources and contacts that we required.

In a nod to our Italian heritage, let us reserve for you our Silver Shore “Privato” service - a private vehicle with driver and/or guide. Create your own itinerary or leave it to us. This service is available in most ports which you can reserve on MySilversea (my.silversea.com) or at the Shore Concierge desk onboard for a truly tailor-made arrangement.
