The modern building of the temple isn't very old: it was built in 1973 on the place, where in 1921 another temple was situated. It is a wonderful example of Chinese architectural style with red columns and golden roof. The temple complex also includes the Wall of Nine Dragons, which was created as an imitation of the world-famous Peking Wall. Like in the other temples, in Wong Tai Sin Temple work a lot of soothsayers, more than that, there one can find a shop with Chinese herbals. Around the complex you'll see the magnificent garden, in Good Wish Garden people wish each other the best.
The Star Ferry. The Star Ferry is a pleasant way to enjoy the sights of Hong Kong. Ferries sail between Hong Kong Island and Kowloon Island. During this short voyage you'll get to know the city from the other side. The view on the port and the outlook of Hong Kong are really beautiful, so such trips are very popular with tourists. The first ferries of the Victoria Harbor started sailing in the end of the 19th century. They were a little bit smaller than modern, which can place 750 people. The upper deck has the status of 1st class: there are conditioners that help to get over the heat. The ferry makes 4 stops: Tsim Sha Tsui, Central, Wan Chai and Hung Hom.
