Mandarin and Cantonese Language Trips to Hong Kong
A language tour to Hong Kong offers an insight into a land which is constantly changing and to a nation whose language is becoming ever more important to the world. Today, knowledge of the Mandarin language is extremely valuable on a global level and is becoming fundamental to understanding world affairs.
Based in Aberdeen, in the Tin Wan district of Hong Kong Island South, our half day specialist classes leave ample time to discover the delights of the city including Victoria Peak, Stanley Bay and Times Square. Our tour to Hong Kong provides all participants with unforgettable experiences of this fascinating metropolis, both educationally and socially.
Selection of Educational Excursions
The Big Buddha
Take the cable car and visit the Buddhist temple. This is a major Buddhist shrine located near to the Po Lin monastery and it has become a major tourist attraction. It represents the harmonious relationship between man and nature.
Hong Kong Wetland Park
Natural wetlands, along with agricultural land, are being lost to development in southern China at an astonishing rate. A visit to Hong Kong Wetland Park allows for an evaluation of this loss of habitat. The juxtaposition of the towering housing blocks on the park’s perimeter with the biodiversity of wildlife within the park provides students with a thought provoking visit.
Victoria Peak
Made famous during early colonial times, this is now home to many wealthy local residents. A trip on the peak tram will give you spectacular panoramic views of Hong Kong.
Hong Kong Museum of History
A museum dedicated to collecting, preserving and researching the history and development of Hong Kong. A great way to see and understand the development of the area.
Tai O Stilted Community
A trip into the New Territories will take you to the heart of old Hong Kong, to a place where time-honoured ways of living are maintained in traditional communities.
Ocean Park – Animal and Conservation Theme Park
A marine-themed park with sea lions, dolphins, sharks, penguins and killer whales housed in simulated natural habitats. It is also the home of Hong Kong’s four famous giant pandas.
Temple Street Night Markets, Kowloon
Popular with tourists and locals alike, the markets here are a great place to buy souvenirs and to witness Hong Kong at work.
Star Ferry Harbour Cruise
Take a boat cruise through Victoria Harbour between Hong Kong Island and Kowloon. See all of Hong Kong’s harbour side attractions as the sun goes down.
A Symphony of Lights
Every evening in Hong Kong Harbour this light and laser show involves many of the city’s major buildings and brings the skyline to life.
Repulse Bay
The crescent shaped beach here is one of the most beautiful stretches of sand in Hong Kong and the site of luxury apartments and award winning restaurants.
