Kowloon Public Pier
It approaches Hong Kong Cultural Centre and Victoria Harbour. Any ships can freely park at the pier and this is the best place to catch the Symphony of Lights Show at usually starts at 8pm.
An amazing place to capture that Hong Kong Island skyline.
My favorite and most efficient way from the Island to Kowloon is via the Star Ferry! It's around $2 HKD and about a 10 min cruise over to Kowloon and the pier!
