A Perfect 3-Day Hong Kong Itinerary Using Your Hong Kong City Pass

Hong Kong is a city full of contrasts. One moment you are looking at misty green mountains and the next you are standing between tall skyscrapers and lively streets. Old temples, modern districts and quiet cable car rides all blend together in a simple and beautiful way. It is an exciting place to explore, but with so many things to see, planning a trip can feel a little overwhelming.

This is where the Hong Kong City Pass becomes helpful. The city pass brings the city’s main attractions together in one easy option. You do not need to buy separate tickets or manage different bookings. With one QR code, you can explore Hong Kong more smoothly and focus on enjoying your trip.

To make everything even easier, here is a simple 3 day Hong Kong itinerary that fits well with all Hong Kong City Pass options and helps you see the best parts of the city without stress.

Day 1: Ngong Ping 360, Big Buddha and the Calm of Lantau Island

Your first day in Hong Kong starts away from the tall buildings and busy streets. Lantau Island has wide open views, fresh air and quiet spots that feel very different from the city.

Ngong Ping 360 Cable Car

The Ngong Ping 360 Cable Car is one of the most beautiful experiences in Hong Kong. When the cabin lifts into the air, the city slowly disappears behind you. Green hills, small boats on the water and a long stretch of sky create a peaceful view.
With your MegaPass Hong Kong City Pass, you simply scan your QR code and enter. There are no separate ticket counters or extra steps.

Tian Tan Buddha

When you arrive at Ngong Ping Village, a smooth path takes you toward the Tian Tan Buddha. Walking up the steps is worth the effort, because the view from the top opens up across the whole area. Even if there are other visitors around, the space still feels calm and open.

Po Lin Monastery and Wisdom Path

Just below the Buddha, you will find Po Lin Monastery, where incense and quiet courtyards create a peaceful atmosphere. If you continue walking, you will reach Wisdom Path. Here, tall wooden pillars with ancient writings stand in a circle against the mountains. It is a simple but meaningful place to pause and enjoy the moment.

Evening in the City

Take the cable car back and enjoy a relaxed evening in Central or by the Tsim Sha Tsui waterfront.  When night arrives, the harbor lights begin to shine and it becomes a beautiful way to end your first day in Hong Kong.

Day 2: Victoria Peak, Harbour Views and Hong Kong’s Iconic Neighborhoods

Your second day shows you the Hong Kong that many travelers imagine. It is a mix of wide skyline views, busy streets and famous city spots.

Peak Tram Ride

The Peak Tram is more than just transport. It is a short but memorable ride. As the tram goes up the hill, the buildings outside begin to look like they are tilting. With your MegaPass Hong Kong City Pass, you skip the usual ticket lines and walk straight to the entrance.

Sky Terrace 428

At the top of Victoria Peak, Sky Terrace 428 gives you one of the most beautiful views in the world. Green hills, tall towers and the bright harbor all appear together in a full 360 degree view. Morning and sunset are especially impressive.

Peak Circle Walk

If you want a quieter moment, the Peak Circle Walk is an easy loop around the mountain. It has small hidden viewpoints and peaceful forest paths that many visitors do not notice.

Evening at Victoria Harbour

End the day at the Tsim Sha Tsui waterfront. The lights from the skyline reflect on the water, ferries move slowly across the harbor and the evening breeze feels calm. It is one of the most memorable views in Hong Kong.
