The tram was packed and we had to stand. As we ascended up a near vertical track, this meant that we had to lean against the back wall to avoid falling over. The views were astounding; we could see why Hong Kong has been compared with Rio – both cities are blessed geographically. The haze in Hong Kong meant that we couldn’t see the mountains, but had great views of the city below. On exiting the tram station, people are steered on a path through a very modern shopping and dining complex via a series of escalators until finally arriving outside and being able to just take in the view. Surreal jazz versions of Christmas songs blasted out along the way. I had forgotten it was still Christmas.
