Victoria Harbour is a natural landform harbour in Hong Kong separating Hong Kong Island in the south from the Kowloon Peninsula to the north. It acts as both a major trading hub and tourist attraction of Hong Kong in general. Lying in the middle of the territory's dense urban region, the harbour is also the site of annual fireworks displays and promenades which are used as gathering attractions for local residents and tourists.Source: Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0
