Study Abroad Program
Hong Kong
There
is no place quite like Hong Kong on this earth. As a destination, Hong
Kong sells itself through contented shoppers, sightseers, and gourmands,
who return home extolling the experience of a few days spent in frantic
pursuit of pleasures around the perimeter of the world's most exciting
harbor.
What Lord Palmerston, Queen Victoria's foreign secretary, once called
a "barren rock" has become one of the 20th century's most astounding
products. Its prosperity and vitality result from the city's the ability
to bend with political winds from all directions. Great fortunes can
be made almost daily.
With the opening of a superhighway through the New Territories, the
rest of China will become an even more attractive extension of Hong
Kong visits. The construction of more and more first-class hotels and
the reduction in transpacific airfares also add to Hong Kong's appeal
as the second most popular destination on Asia tour programs.
The 1990s have been one of Hong Kong's more interesting and eventful
periods, as the territory has prepared to become a "Special Administrative
Region" of the most populated country in the world—with its own laws,
currency, and guarantees of individual liberties.
