Hong Kong skyline

Asian financial district panorama

The Hong Kong skyline is the distinctive cityscape formed by the densely packed skyscrapers along Victoria Harbour, one of the world's most recognizable urban panoramas.

The term evokes the dramatic vertical density, nightly light shows, and the contrast between modern towers and surrounding mountains: The Hong Kong skyline glittered across the water.
