How to Plan a Date Night in Hong Kong – An unforgettable romantic getaway

Want to impress your partner? You’ve made the right decision to come to Hong Kong. A date night at home eating snacks and watching TV shows sounds romantic, but sometimes you need to step out of your comfort zone and go the extra mile to make your loved one feel special. Hong Kong is home to one of the most beautiful cityscapes in the world, so if you are planning a date night here, rest assured that you are going to have a great time.

Dine at Aqua

Just five minutes from Dorsett Mongkok Hong Kong is Aqua – a harbourfront restaurant located near Victoria Harbour. The restaurant overlooks the beautiful harbour and the surrounding skyscrapers. At night, the sight becomes magical and romantic.The place specialises in Italian and Japanese food, so if you ever want to try something unique, you should come here. Also, don’t forget to order a glass of wine to add colour to the occasion.

A movie at Broadway Cinematheque

Is there anything you’d like to watch at the cinema? Head to Broadway Cinematheque with your partner. There’s also a coffee shop that’s part of the cinema. After the movie, go to the coffee shop for a delicious cup of coffee; you can also borrow books and admire beautiful art pieces.

Chi Lin Nunnery

To have a romantic experience in a peaceful and serene atmosphere, visit Chi Lin Nunnery. This Tang dynasty-style temple was renovated, and there are several halls, ponds, and relics; you’ll also find a garden where you can take a stroll in peace.

Couple spa treatments 

Treat your loved one to a luxurious spa treatment at one of the many spa houses in Hong Kong. This is not a budget activity, but if you are on a budget, you can save up for a spa treatment by staying at a budget hotel in Hong Kong.

You don’t necessarily have to be out in an open space to have a romantic night under the starry night; you can have a similar experience at Hong Kong Space Museum. A visit to this museum will be fun, entertaining, educational, and, most importantly, romantic. The museum is located in Kowloon.

Sunset cruise

Sign up for a sunset cruise for the most romantic experience in Hong Kong. Choose any day you like and set sail right before 6 pm to see the sunset from aboard a cruise ship. You’ll sail along the harbour, which qualifies as an experience in itself. What’s more, you’ll be served unlimited cocktails as the night wraps up around you.

Explore UNESCO-listed sites

With its colonial buildings and cultural attractions, Macau creates a romantic setting. Getting here involves a 50-minute ferry ride, which is nothing compared to the experience you’ll have here. Chinese temples and Portuguese-style buildings are among the main highlights. Macau Tower is another attraction you should see during your visit; the tower has a height of 333 metres.

Take photos

Of course, you are going to take pictures when you are on a romantic holiday, but in Hong Kong, you can hire a personal photographer to spend a half day with you taking photos.

Best time to visit Hong Kong

Outdoor activities and great weather are two reasons for you to visit Hong Kong in the right season. For the best romantic experience, you should visit during autumn and early winter. The best tourist season, of course, brings high accommodation rates, but the money you pay for your hotel or resort will be worth it.That said, keep in mind that Hong Kong is a year-round destination, and even if you visit outside of the best tourist season, you will find things to do. Also, low accommodation rates will make up for the high-temperature levels.
