SKY-100 Lookout

In general, Hong Kong is rich in viewing platforms, for example, besides the peak of Victoria, they are still: IFC ( International FINANCIAL CENTER) - on the 55th floor is free, Sentral Plaza ( Central Plaza.) - on the 46th floor, Bank of China Tower ( which glows triangles) - Free for 43 floors.

But we decided that we would like exactly on Sky-100. It rises at 393 meters and is located on the 100th floor at the International Trade Center ( tHE INTERNATIONAL COMMERCE CENTRE, ICC). The building is easily recognizable, this is the highest skyscraper of Hong Kong ( 118 floors, 490 meters), It is located on the Cowloon Peninsula and literally "sticking out" from the Earth, the Sucked Sky. All other buildings of the peninsula look just with shorts on his background.

To get to SKY-100., you need to get to the Metro Station Kowloon Station, pass through the C2 output ( can D2.), climb the floor 2 / f in the Elements Shopping Mall shopping center, on the signs to find Metal Zone ( one of the sectors of the shopping center), and also by signs you will find the entrance to the SKY-100 elevator. The instruction, it seems to be confused, but, in fact, finding the viewing platform is quite simple, so do not be afraid.

Next to the elevators there is a Ticket Center, where you can buy a ticket. For an adult it costs 168 HKD, for a baby 118 HKD ( specify here http://www.sky100.com.hk/en/ticket-and-booking/ticket-information). It works SKY-100 from 10-00 to 21-00, but the last visitor runs at 20-00.

On a beautiful and very stylishly decorated elevator, you will raise the 100th floor for 60 seconds, where you can admire the Circular Panorama of Hong Kong. An overview of 360 degrees allows you to consider the whole city. In addition to a beautiful view outside the window, there is a lot of interesting things - the city layout under the glass floor, multimedia exhibitions from interesting facts About Hong Kong, interactive assistants, souvenir shop, small cafe.

In the same skyscraper is ozone bar.

We could not miss the opportunity to visit one of the highest bars in the world - Ozone. It is located on the 118th floor of the International Commerce Center and belongs to the Ritz Carlton Hotel ( which occupied all the upper floors, starting from 103). In general, Ozone and Dubai AT.MOSPHERE are now arguing for the title of high bar in the world, with different ways of calculations, the result is different, for example: Ozone - 118 Floor, Dubai AT.MOSPHERE - 122 floor, but Ozone at an altitude of 474 meters, and AT.MOSPHERE is 422 meters. Whatever it was, Ozone - Uniquely the highest in AsiaAnd this is definitely a reason to visit him.

Ozone is positioned as a very expensive bar, but do not be afraid. Of course, if you are going to eat tightly there, it will be quite considerable. But if you just want to sit on a couple of branded cocktails, admiring the city with an open bar site, then such a rest will not devastate your wallet, and you will get a lot of impressions.

The Bar website has an indication of the dress code "Dress Code: No Beach Sandals, Open Toe Shoes, Sleeveless Shirts for Gentlemen After 9PM", that is "The form of visitors' clothing excludes: sandals, sandals; Men must be dressed in pants, not shorts, T-shirts are prohibited after 21-00 " . But we didn't notice any strict dress code, noisy "bourgeois" pensioners were resting with us, dressed in some vague semi-flimples, and the company of young guys from Irkutsk, who stopped at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel and jumped into the bar Hurry to change clothes from the road.

The interior of the bar is interesting, beautiful, but here to call him some kind of outstanding, as they do in many reviews, I can not. Be sure to sit in an open area, though we did not suffer for a long time, since a strong and cool wind rose ( the end of October is still, and also height), Even the waiters have all wrapped in warm jackets.

To warm up and carefully inspect the bar, we moved to a closed part. There were many free tables, the people came up the most "diverse", and the atmosphere is completely relaxed, no pathos and snobsm. In general, we spent very well evening in one of the highest bars of the world, and I recommend that you possible case Be sure to go here. Just in case, pre-look at the work schedule (http://www.ritzcarlton.com/en/hotels/china/hong-kong/dining/Ozone).

Located on the only skyscraper in the city from which you can look at the city from a bird's eye view, with a review of 360 degrees and from a height of about five hundred meters.

It is located in the international building shopping center, externally, no attractive. Only in the evening illumination the skyscraper looks elegant.

The entrance to the viewing platform is paid, but not as expensive as on similar platforms in and. There is a flexible system of discounts for various categories of visitors. It is possible to get to the hundredth floor in just one minute, but with unusual it is scary, especially when you understand that your ears have laid. After leaving the elevator, tourists fall into the corridor with some kind of cosmic backlight, so the feeling of the presence of something unearthly is created.

You need to be prepared for the fact that you will not be missed with professional equipment and with major things. There are strict restrictions on the size of the supposed bags. You can also take food and drinks with you, with the exception of baby nutrition bottles.

SKY 100 Observation Dext in Hong Kong Fully closed, so the city will have to admire the city. For this reason, it is better to look here on the sides than to photograph, since the pictures are fuzzy, especially in the evening. From here, the peak Victoria peak, the harbor, and if you are lucky, you will be able to see the fireworks for which you will look from above. Unfortunately, the entrance tickets are sold only to 21.00, and many laser shows begin only at 22.00 and it does not always work out to look with Sky 100.

The SKY 100 observation deck in Hong Kong is also famous for the fact that exhibitions are constantly being held here using laser technologies and special effects. There is even the opportunity to choose a route for further visiting the city, as there is a kind of map with the image of all the most interesting places in the city. It is for this reason that it is necessary to go here in the first place, and only then plan for Hong Kong.

Price: 150 Hong Kong dollars for adults and 105 for children.

Opening hours: 10-22 daily.

Images to material

By the number of super high buildings Hong Kong is in the first place, ahead of even New York. There are almost 560 huge skyscrapers in the city.

If you want to admire Hong Kong from the aerial view, be sure to visit the viewing platform in the Two International Finance Center, the name for some reason is written so 2 IFC. This high-rise building is located in the city center and here from 55 floors you can admire the city from the inside, but from a huge height. This is how to see Hong Kong in miniature, one bad review is not 360 degrees, but the views are great. You can visit this site for free and even except the site on the 55th floor you can visit (also for free) Museum of Hong Kong money. You need to visit this place on a weekday.

You already know about the peak of Victoria, I advise you to go upstairs on the funicular, and you can go off the peak by bus. So you can admire the views from different sides, the bus goes down from Victoria's peak on another road. The bus goes slower than the funicular, which in Hong Kong is called the tram, and the bus ticket is much cheaper than on the funicular. Slow ride on the bus will extend your admissions with beautiful views. Also, you can visit the Victory Museum, which is at the peak of Victoria.

The incredible panoramic view of the city can be seen on the highest viewing platform "Sky100", which is located on the 100m floor of The International Commerce Center. There is an international commercial center on the shore of Victoria Bay in the western part of the Kowloon district. This is a fairly new 484-meter building, built in 2010. In total, it has 118 floors, and the observation deck is located on the 100 floor. You can get to this building on the ferry, and then walk or on the subway, the station is located next to the ICC. At the hundredth floor you will take the high-speed elevator in just 60 seconds. Views that open from this high-end viewing is simply unrealistic. The sea, bay, the city in the haze of the clouds all this creates the effect of infinity, it seems that you are not a reality before you, but the painting of the artist. You need to come here for an hour and a half to see Hong Kong in the daylight and in the evening twilight. There are places where you can sit, relax, admire the charming sunset and visit the bar. People at this observation site are more than on the 55th floor of Two International Finance Center, but sit the place will always find and the views are magnificent. The cost of visiting the observation deck from 180 local dollars. And if you want to see Hong Kong since greater heightYou can rent a hotel room located on the 118th floor of the skyscraper. But such pleasure will cost 600 dollars per day.
