Hong Kong

Victoria Harbour stages the world's most theatrical skyline, and Hong Kong lets you choose your seat: Ozone, on the 118th floor of the ICC, is officially the planet's highest bar, while the Kowloon waterfront roofs look straight back at the island's full neon wall.

Why go

Temple Street is the last of Hong Kong's great open-air night markets and still the full theatre: fortune tellers, Cantonese opera singers, trinket stalls and dai pai dong kitchens dishing out clay-pot rice and chilli crab under strings of bare bulbs. Arrive around 9pm when the opera corner warms up, and eat at the open-air tables on Woosung Street — point at a neighbour's clay pot and order that. Haggling at the stalls is expected; start at half.
