Airports in Hong Kong SAR
The most vital airport in Hong Kong is the International Airport in Chek Lap Kok. Hong Kong's secondary airport is located in Shek Kong.
Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA) serves as hub to most countries in the world, as well as Mainland China. Until 1998 Hong Kong International Airport was located at Kai Tak.
In 2007, HKIA was judged the World's Best Airport, averaging 44 million passengers yearly. HKIA is surrounded by water and is a complex structure of technology and architecture. It is only 25 miles south-west of downtown. At the moment some $4.5 billion is being spent on upgrade that includes building an extension of the central concourse.
Hong Kong was once under British rule. The territory was handed back to China in July of 1997. It is now officially known as a Special Administrative Region. That means Hong Kong still enjoys an open market economy. There were initial misgivings about the hand-over, but Hong Kong continued to remain an economic power in Asia and is still known as one of the freest capital economies in the world. It is a highly developed metropolis and an international financial center.
Hong Kong has very little arable land and few natural resources, so most of its basic necessities and raw materials are imported into the region. Despite this, the region has thrived from its humble beginnings to become what it is today.
The special administrative region is divided into eighteen administrative districts over four major islands: Hong Kong Island, Kowloon Peninsula, Lantau Island, and the New Territories.
