Hong Kong, China and Macau travel tips

The hard part is over; you’ve decided where to go; now it comes down to the organising. Sometimes it is the basic things that we tend to forget so Qantas Holidays has compiled some tips to simplify your planning. We’ve also included a checklist so you don’t forget the vital things. k Climate

j Currency

Hong Kong: The climate is generally subtropical ranging from an average of 17˚C in winter to 31˚C in summer. Macau: Temperatures range from 16˚C in winter to 25˚C in summer. Beijing: Has a ‘continental monsoon’ climate with temperatures averaging between 4˚C in winter and 26˚C in summer. Shanghai: Experience a great contrast in seasons with winter temperatures averaging 10˚C and summer close to 30˚C.

Hong Kong’s currency is the Hong Kong Dollar (HK$). The Pataca (MOP) is the official unit of currency in Macau but Hong Kong Dollars are widely accepted.

e Passports, visas and insurance Australian passport holders must have a valid passport with at least six months’ validity beyond their stay in Hong Kong, China and Macau. Australian passport holders do not require a visa for visits of up to three months in Hong Kong and 30 days in Macau. All visitors to China do require a visa. We strongly recommend that you purchase a comprehensive travel insurance policy, when you book your holiday.

Hong Kong is a city of commerce and trade and is famous for its tailored clothes, electrical and photographic goods, watches, antiques, silk fabrics, china, diamonds, jewellery, perfume and local handicrafts. You’ll find everything from cutting-edge fashion to Chinese antiques. In Macau, the most popular buys include jewellery, antiques, electrical goods, porcelain, pottery, watches and knitwear, which are all available at duty-free prices. China offers hundreds of modern shopping centres with good quality silks, crafts and jewellery. Staff at these stores generally understand English. The art and craft factories feature jewellery, porcelain, ceramics, carvings, Chinese lanterns, linen, rugs, clay figures and silk embroidery. NOTE: Whilst we take every care to ensure that the information in this brochure is correct at time of printing, we urge you to check details of your selected holiday with your travel consultant prior to booking. You should inquire about local issues and conditions at destinations prior to travel. Qantas Holidays makes no representations as to the safety, conditions or other issues that may exist at any destination. Travel advice can be obtained from various sources including local governments, local consular offices and the website of the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade: www.smartraveller.gov.au

i Tipping Most hotels in Hong Kong and Macau will add 10% service charge to your bill. Tipping in addition to this is at your discretion. Historically and officially, tipping is discouraged in China. However, as China welcomes more and more western visitors, attitudes have changed and tipping is more widely accepted as an expression of appreciation for services. Travellers should note that punctuality for meals and sightseeing tours is greatly appreciated.

g Electricity In Hong Kong and China voltage is 220 volts. Plugs are normally three-pin rectangular pronged. However an international adaptor is recommended.

Planning your holiday Nan Lian Garden, Kowloon

Hong Kong and Macau

The vibrant city of Hong Kong offers holiday experiences like no other. Here, old meets new, East meets West, and you can shop until you drop. With its serene tai chi, neon bright lights, lofty mountain peaks, lively markets and floating restaurants, there’s excitement and tradition at every turn. Visit Macau for its mega casinos and Las Vegas-lifestyle, but stay awhile longer and you’ll discover a land of great history and culture. Hong Kong

Macau

Hong Kong is a story in three parts: Hong Kong Island, Kowloon Peninsula and the New Territories. Together, they’re a thrilling combination of modern skyscraper and ancient temple, shredded jellyfish stir-fry and dawn tai chi, beaches, mountains and deserted islands. And then there’s the sublime shopping: designer fashion, electrical goods and charming local souvenirs. Hong Kong’s history is fascinating. Originally a small fishing community and a haven for travellers and pirates, it was used by the British as a naval base during the Opium Wars with China. It remained a British colony from 1842 until sovereignty was transferred to the Peoples Republic of China in 1997.

Set on a small peninsula at the entrance to the Pearl River, Macau was once a Portuguese stronghold and this heritage is laid out in the country’s fortresses, churches and delicious food. Today, more than 96 per cent of its 540,000-plus residents are ethnic Chinese, from provinces including Guangdong and Fujian, which makes for an intriguing blend of customs. Only an hour from Hong Kong by catamaran or jetfoil, Macau and its temples, museums and casinos are well worth exploring. NORTH KOREA

Kowloon

JAPAN

Teeming with fantastic bars, pubs, shops and markets, Kowloon is connected to Hong Kong by three tunnels and the Light Rail Transit, but a trip across Hong Kong Harbour on a Star Ferry is the ideal way to commute between the two. Be tempted by the Temple Street Night Markets and wander along Nathan Road for its vast range of shopping.

Hong Kong Island Considered the heart of Hong Kong, Hong Kong Island is a mix of entertainment, shopping, markets, cafes, beaches and floating restaurants. It’s also the historic, political and economic centre of the nation, and home to the original settlement of the Hong Kong territory, Victoria. Take a ride to Victoria Peak for spectacular views or dine in the famous Jumbo Floating Restaurant on Aberdeen Harbour.

It was burnt by the British-French Allied Army in 1860 and then restored in 1888.

Travel to the Summer Palace, one of the biggest and most famous royal gardens in the world. Enjoy a Chinese lunch at a local restaurant before going on to see the Giant Panda in Beijing Zoo, followed by the Lama Temple. The intricate and beautifully restored temple is the most famous Tibetan Buddhist temple in China and perhaps Beijing’s grandest religious structure. The temple has lovely gardens and beautiful tapestries and frescoes. It consists of five groups of buildings and inside the last there is a 26 metre high Buddha.

Visit the world’s greatest man-made project, the 6,000 kilometre long Great Wall. Built more than 2,000 years ago, it is the only object that can be seen from the moon.

Dating between 1368 to 1644, you will have a chance to see one of the 13 tombs, the Ding Ling, with its Underground Palace and show rooms.

The Bund

Shanghai A visit to dynamic Shanghai is exhilarating. This booming city is China’s largest and home to shopping malls and eye-popping modern architecture as well as ancient temples, street markets and classical Chinese gardens. Shanghai is a city of incredible contrast: you can sip a cocktail in an upmarket bar; eat dumplings at a street stall, or marvel at a 10th-century Buddhist monastery. There are European-style cityscapes, tree-lined neighbourhoods and the futuristic skyline of Pudong. Visit the fascinating Shanghai Museum for its 12,000-plus cultural relics including paintings, sculptures, ceramics and carvings, and pop into the Poster Propaganda Art Centre for a sample of the slogans from China’s Maoist times.

Xian Xian is the fabled beginning and end of the Silk Road, a whirl of music, colour and desert dust, where camel caravans unloaded goods from across the Eurasian continent and packed up aspects of China that went on to influence the world. Located in the fertile Wei River valley, it was one of the epicentres of early Chinese civilisation and a well-established city two centuries before Rome was founded. The remnants of this ancient world of emperors, courtesans, poets, monks, merchants and soldiers are everywhere, from the Terracotta Army - motionless ranks of warriors staring out across the centuries - to the Muslim influence that still characterises the city.
