If you go to Hong Kong by air, you will
arrive at Kal Tak Airport. Because there was no suitable land, this was built
out into the sea. It is in the part of Hong Kong called Kowloon. Kowloon is one
of the two big cities in Hong Kong. It is only a few miles from Guang Dong
Province. The other city is Hong Kong itself. This is on an island and to get
there from the mainland, you have to go by a ferry(渡船) through a tunnel(隧道 )
under the sea. Much of Hong Kong is farmland and mountains; the cities occupy
only about 10% of the area. The population of Hong Kong is over 4. 5 million.
98% of these are Chinese. Its official languages are Chinese and English. The
currency is called the Hong Kong dollar. Because most of the
people are Chinese, Hong Kong is also a good place for Chinese
cooking. Hong Kong has returned to China in
1997.
