ICC's Highest View?

fmd_good International Commerce Centre

So, I'm heading to @HongKong next month and staying near the International Commerce Centre (ICC). I've seen photos of the view from the Ritz-Carlton, Hong Kong, which is in the ICC, but I'm wonderin… more

The view from the Ritz-Carlton in the ICC is genuinely spectacular. Pictures don't quite do it justice. It's a seriously impressive panorama, especially at sunset. You'll feel pretty high up, but honestly, it's more about the sheer scale and detail of the cityscape spread out beneath you than a "on top of the world" feeling. One thing: consider the time of year. Smog can sometimes impact visibility. If your budget allows, the drink prices at the bar aren't outrageous given the view. That adds to the whole experience. But if you’re on a tighter budget, just grabbing a drink somewhere with a good view at a lower level might be a better choice. You'll still get a killer view of the harbor and the city, just not from quite as high up.

Wow, thanks for the detailed response! That's really helpful. Sunset sounds amazing – I hadn’t even considered the time of day. Good point about the smog too; I’ll definitely check the forecast. And yeah, I wasn't expecting the bar prices to be that exorbitant given the location. Appreciate the heads-up on alternatives for a more budget-friendly option. I might try to scout out a cheaper place with a good view beforehand just to compare.

Tai Hang's got a real vibe, alright. Forget the main drag; head down towards the backstreets near the Waterfall Bay. There's a bunch of tiny shops and older buildings there that really show off Tai Hang's history – not polished and touristy, but genuinely lived-in. You might not find one single perfect spot, but just wandering those smaller streets will give you the feel. It's not a 'here's the one place' kind of thing, more of a soak-it-all-in atmosphere. You'll get it, you know?
