About Tsim Sha Tsui East Promenade

"Visitors who only have one day to explore Kowloon must spend it at the Tsim Sha Tsui East Promenade. A leisurely stroll is in order to see the best of Kowloon in one go.

The promenade stretches 1.6 km (1 mi) from the Star Ferry in the west to the Hung Hom submarine tunnel. With spectacular views of the Victoria Harbour and the Hong Kong skyline, the promenade starts at the Clock Tower, the only remnant of the original colonial railway. 

Wander along through the Avenue of Stars, Kowloon’s answer to the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The film industry of Hong Kong and its stars are honoured here with handprints and sculptures. Culture continues to abound at the Hong Kong Cultural Center and Museum of Art. From visual and fine art to technology and space at the Hong Kong Space Museum, the promenade has it all.

Pack your camera or have your phone at the ready for pictures sure to make your friends envious."
