Hong Kong Tramways
香港电车(叮叮车)
Double-decker trams that have run since 1904, offering cheap fares and a slow-paced way to see the streets along Hong Kong Island's north shore.
Affectionately known as 'Ding Ding', the trams run along the north shore of Hong Kong Island between Kennedy Town and Shau Kei Wan, with a branch line to Happy Valley. They are one of the largest double-decker tram systems still operating anywhere in the world. The fare is a flat rate and very low. Board at the rear and alight at the front, paying when you get off, and you can use an Octopus card. For the best experience, sit at the front of the upper deck and watch the streetscapes, signboards, and old buildings pass by as the tram travels from Sai Ying Pun through Central, Wan Chai, and Causeway Bay. The stretch through the Chun Yeung Street market in North Point is a popular photography spot. Open-top sightseeing trams are also available for an additional fee.
