Hong Kong is a territory in perpetual re-invention. The fishing village colonised by the British in the early 19th century has long led Asia and the world in modern architecture - notably of the skyscraper variety. But this is not enough. With mainland Chinese cities going more Flash Gordon with their skylines than Hong Kong, the city has upped the ante and re-emerged as China's capital of cool.

Written by journalists witnessing these transformations, the Time Out Hong Kong city guide is the best insider guide to China's most exciting city and environs. *Sightseeing in Hong Kong *Hong Kong hotels *Hong Kong restaurants *Hong Kong bars *Hong Kong shops *Hong Kong maps
