The Hong Kong Tourism Board (HKTB) has introduced immersive 360-degree virtual tours to reacquaint the world with the city’s attributes as a premier destination for meetings, incentive trips, conventions, and exhibitions (MICE) events. The tours enable a virtual reconnaissance, from anywhere in the world, to explore Hong Kong’s off-the-beaten-track outdoor attractions. The stunning views of the tours serve as powerful reminders of why Hong Kong is the ideal choice for creating a fulfilling regional and international event.

Rock-climb to the top of a cliff or hike to the apex of easily accessible mountains without breaking a sweat. Enjoy panoramic daytime views of verdant country parks and the South China Sea or the mesmerising night skyline of the world-famous harbour front. Nature is so much closer to the city’s bustling commercial and shopping districts than one might think. Within an hour, MICE delegates can easily venture outdoors from event venues or hotels to go cycling, kayaking,

diving, island hopping or camping under the stars, followed by Hong Kong’s renowned gastronomic experiences to round off a thrilling sojourn. Snapshots of these activities featured in the “Great Outdoor Hong Kong” VR adventure will make the prospect of travelling to the Pearl of the Orient to indulge all senses all the more tantalising.

Hong Kong’s scenic and art attractions are also available for touring just a click away. Experience the excitement of Hong Kong’s iconic “Ngong Ping 360” cable car. Check out the city’s art and culture scene, with a virtual tour of the West Kowloon District, the multimedia experience of the Hong Kong Museum of Art, the fascinating Centre for Heritage and Art in the rejuvenated police station Tai Kwun and so much more, on the HKTB website.
