A most vibrant part of mainland China, Hong Kong is one of the globe's premier destinations. Not only does this city have one of the most impressive collections of skyscrapers and modern architecture, but it offers travelers a cultural experience unlike any other in the world. Whether you're enjoying the magnificent view of the iconic Victoria Harbor from a deluxe suite or simply enjoying the wonderful fusion of international, Asian and Cantonese cuisine, there are few better ways to enjoy this celebrated centre of wealth, color and exoticism than by spending some time at a 5 star hotel Hong Kong. Hong Kong's unusual mix of eastern and western cultural influence has permeated much of the modern city's landscape and approach to life. This remarkable melding of eastern traditions with strong western aesthetics and customs is founded in the unique history of the city. Until 1997 it was a British territory when it is was famously handed back to the People's Republic of China. Many curious developments resulted from this, some simply a natural extension of a place which had been a colony of Britain for so long. Despite the population being mainly of Cantonese and Mandarin origin the colonial influence lingers. The new harbor city goes from strength to economic strength, many feel that its spirit hasn't changed much all, a notion which is reinforced by the large degree of economic freedom the city still enjoys, as well as being subject to the same common law principles which were founded during the colonial period. Mainland China, on the other hand, operate a system of civil law. This special administrative independency fosters the sense a sense of endurance, even though change itself is much part of the city's nature. Within its 5 Star Hotels Hong Kong has the same curious mix of western and eastern styles, each with their own character, but all, in one way or another, endowed with the eclecticism for which the city has always been known. Those looking to enjoy the best of the local culture and have the splendid views of the harbor and dazzling city lights before them, might do well to choose one of the 5 Star Hotels Hong Kong Island, the district which was home to the first British settlement. Here visitors will find the city's most active nightlife and shopping areas, as well as the main centers for business. In the midst of the towering skyscrapers and vibrant urban hustle and bustle, are some on the world's most revered 5 Star Hotels. Hong Kong spirit of east meets west is no more apparent than in the Mandarin Oriental, an establishment of international renown and popular with discerning business guests as well as those looking for an elegant, leisurely place from where explore local delights near and far. The seamless incorporating of elements from Asian style and art with a warm modernism makes for a wonderfully textural and layered aesthetic, as inviting as it is chic. Guests are greeted by some spectacular traditional art work, there not only to enhance the generous helping of balanced design, but invested with auspicious meanings which derive from Chinese culture. From the traditional massage and therapies in the opulent spa, to the diversity of themes of the mandarin Oriental's many sumptuous and prestigious restaurants, to the wonderful view of the harbor from the 25th floor, each separate area of this fine hotel speaks of the luxuriousness and stylistic brilliance which mirrors the city's aesthetic spirit. From the magnificent colonial buildings which have survived to be restored to their former glory, to the those which blend the latest technology into contemporary design of their luxury accommodation, 5 Star Hotels Hong Kong offer something special for discerning travelers from all over the world. |
