The Peak Tram

Cultural
in
Hong Kong Island

The Peak Tram is one of the oldest funicular systems in Asia, offering panoramic ascents from the city’s colonial core to its most exclusive hilltop.

Geography

Tracks rise steeply from Garden Road in Central to the upper terminus near Victoria Peak.

History

Opened in 1888, the tram served British colonial elites who lived at cooler elevations. Over time, it became a symbol of modernity, tourism, and nostalgic pride.

Present Day

Fully modernized yet retaining its historical structure, the tram remains a must-see – for both the view and the experience.
