Hong Kong has always been the family’s ultimate playground and is the destination of choice for vacations and celebrations. It’s because of the impressive variety of activities and beautiful places that’s packed in one city! That was where we went three years ago when peanutbutter♥ came home from Dubai.
We explored Disneyland and one day wasn’t enough to see each and every attraction there. It was sad that we were only there for three days. Time was limited and we didn’t get to see all the places we wanted. I do hope you are going to Hong Kong this year, though because Asia’s World City will be rolling in new features, exhibits, and prizes worth up to ₱ 2.3B, thanks to Hong Kong Summer Fun which runs until August 31, 2015.
The little ones and those young at heart will be raring to visit world-class theme parks as Hong Kong Disneyland unveils the Frozen Village. Based on the 2013 blockbuster animation, delve into a winter wonderland and prepare to be enchanted by beloved characters from the film. Sing along to musical performances from Queen Elsa, Princess Anna, and Kristoff, and get the chance to give Olaf a warm hug and hop on a thrilling toboggan sleigh ride.
Meanwhile, characters from the popular messaging app LINE are heading over to Ocean Park Hong Kong for an exciting water party that’s sure to beat the heat. Dive headfirst into a disco foam party, waterfall swings, and water mazes and slides with LINE friends Brown, Cony, and Sally at the Ocean Park Summer Splash 2015 for some aquatic adventure for mom, dad, and the kids.
Get ready to ooh and aah over Hong Kong museums’ new exhibits, starting with Madame Tussauds’ anniversary installations. In celebration of its 15th year, the world-famous wax museum recently opened two new zones which will have families snapping selfies left and right. The K-Wave Zone brings together some of South Korea’s biggest stars like Kim Soohyun, Bae Yong Joon, TVXQ, 2PM’s Nichkhun, and Super Junior’s Choi Siwon. The Kung Fu Zone also kicks off with some of kung fu’s legendary icons, led by Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, Michelle Yeoh and Donnie Yen.
3D museums add another dimension of fun as Hong Kong reveals new 3D displays around the city. Anime fanatics are in for a treat as the One Piece crew invades the Hong Kong 3D Museum where the whole family can pose with their favorite characters from the series. Visitors of all ages can also spend the day exploring the awesome world of 3D at the wildly popular Trick Eye Museum at the Peak Galleria Mall, as well as at the Repulse Bay Visual Art Museum. After enjoying some sun, sand, and sea at the nearby Repulse Bay Beach, cap off the day with the Hong Kong Pulse 3D Light Show which offers audiences a new summer-themed spectacle.
Hong Kong’s malls join in the revelry with added attractions to look forward to. Harbour City is hosting the Where’s Wally Hong Kong Adventure until August 9, which celebrates globetrotter Wally’s first time in Asia. Times Square is also featuring Gundam Docks II from August 1 to 31, while robots rule at The ONE Mall with a seven-meter Mazinger Z for The ONE x Go Nagai Exhibition until August 31.
Aside from the exciting line-up of activities and exhibits, visitors will also receive a Welcome Gift upon arrival at the Hong Kong International Airport. They can also download e-Coupons from DiscoverHongKong.com that unlock instant gourmet privileges, shopping discounts, and other unique offers. The Shop Eat Play VIP Card included in the Welcome Pack distributed at the pre-immigration hall of the Hong Kong International Airport also gives visitors exclusive offers and discounts from participating merchants. Finally, there’s also the chance to win a PHP 1.7 M-worth (HK$300,000) trip to Hong Kong in the Return To Hong Kong Like A Millionaire grand draw.
Truly, it’s the perfect season to go to Asia’s World City as Hong Kong’s most popular destinations deck out to give the whole family an unforgettable visit with Hong Kong Summer Fun.

Yes, we are going soon, too, this time with the much older kiddos! I am sure we will have a grand time! 🙂
I’m sure you will!
The 3D museum sounds like a great place to get some really fantastic photos. Disneyland Hong Kong seems like it is a wonderful place to visit and spend a few days.
Yes it is!
That sounds like an amazing vacation! The Trick Eye Museum really looks cool, I never seen anything like that before. My sons would like the One Piece exhibit. My daughter would love going to another Disneyland. My husband would just love it all. Definitely sounds like we need to add Hong Kong to our bucket list!
Oh yeah!
Yay for Kim Soohyun loved this little man, never been to any Disney yet but am close to the paris one so hopefully I can go soon
Wow, I want to go to Disneyland in Paris too!
that looks like you had so much fun. I’d love to go and take all the fun pics at the trick eye museum.
The Trick eye museum is indeed very cool.
Sounds like tons of fun! Thank you for sharing.
you’re welcome.
Oh wow! I didn’t even know that Hong Kong had a place like this! It sounds just like the U.S’s Disneyland or Disney World. I would love to go here one day with my kids!
I’m sure you’ll enjoy it.
That picture in the boat is so funny. Looks like this was a lot of fun. And the Trick Eye museum looks really neat.
Hongkong has always been a place of unending discoveries. Your photos captured what you’ve all had on your vacation 🙂
Have more adventures in the future!

Thanks Apple!
If we only have the time and the budget, we will definitely visit HongKong soon! Love their attractions!
Same here! I wish we had more time and more budget.
I’m currently in Hong Kong and instead of the usual attractions, I went on to hit the trails. They have a really rich forested area in Hong Kong and they have it designed so it would be accessible to everybody.
What an amazing experience! I see similiar sights to the DisneyLand in the US but there are some cool cultural differences as well! Hong Kong is on my travel wish list and if we ever make it, I’ll be sure to check this out!
Oh I’m sure you’ll love it there.
I’ve never been in Hong Kong, I’ve seen this in facebook before. Your family had a fun experienced..
Yes we did!
Beautiful pictures! I especially love the eye trick one – I want to try it! I’ve never been to Hong Kong but now I definitely have a reason!
Thanks Stephanie!
These look like such fun places to visit. I’ve been to all the Disney parks, including Disneyland Paris, and I’d love to one day go to Disneyland Hong Kong.
I’m sure you’ll enjoy it there too!
Wow that is so much different than our Disney World here in Florida. I have not seen some of these characters. Looks like a ton of fun!
It is!
It does look like you had a nice time. Three days is good! I would love to go three days. 🙂
Three days is good enough.
OMGoodness…your daughter’s outfits in the pictures are too cute! I haven’t been to any Disney theme park yet, but they all look magical. I love all of the different features shown here.
Thanks Yona!
This indeed looks like an amazing time for the whole family. I would love to go to the Ocean Park Disneyland in Hong Kong. Hopefully some day I can have as awesome an experience like you. Thanks so much for sharing and I must say I have never seen so many Waldo’s in one place before. 😀
Thanks Rebecca!
I’ve always wanted to visit Hong Kong and now I want to even more! I love the eye-trick museum and being a Disney Bride, I would LOVE to visit Disneyland! You are so lucky!!
