The panoramic views of the Peak Tower, “Big Buddha” on Lantau Island and the Avenue of Stars in Tsim Sha Tsui have been ranked as Hong Kong’s top three most-reviewed attractions, according to Google Maps.

The list of the city’s most-reviewed spots of all time, unveiled on Monday, also highlighted three famous attractions in Central – the cultural centre Tai Kwun, the nightlife district of Lan Kwai Fong and the Mid-Levels escalators.

They were among the city’s top 10 for locals and tourists alike, with the rest of the list including Sai Kung’s public pier which connects to the Unesco Global Geopark, the West Kowloon cultural district, the Mills in Tsuen Wan and Repulse Bay’s beach.

The Peak Tower, “Big Buddha” and the Avenue of Stars filled the top three positions for most-reviewed spots.

Among the 10 most-photographed hiking trails, Dragon’s Back, in the Shek O Country Park came out on top, followed by Pineapple Dam around Shing Mun Reservoir and Sweet Gum Woods in Tai Tong, to complete the top three.
