Hong Kong’s answer to Hollywood’s Walk of Fame, the Avenue of Stars lines the Tsim Sha Tsui promenade with handprints, statues, and plaques celebrating Cantonese cinema legends. Against the dazzling backdrop of Victoria Harbour and the Hong Kong Island skyline, this waterfront walkway is a must for film buffs and photographers alike. The star attraction is the iconic Bruce Lee statue, a favourite selfie spot, while the nightly Symphony of Lights show adds extra sparkle.
Highlights & What to See
- Bruce Lee Statue – Strike a kung-fu pose beside the 2m-tall bronze likeness of the martial arts icon.
- Handprints of Stars – Compare your palms with imprints of Jackie Chan, Maggie Cheung and other screen idols.
- Victoria Harbour Views – The promenade offers one of the best vantage points for the harbour and the Star Ferry crossing.
- Symphony of Lights – Catch the nightly multimedia show (8pm) with lasers and lights synced to music.

Suggested Time to Spend
Dedicate 1–2 hours to stroll the 440m promenade, snap photos, and linger on the views. Combine with a Star Ferry ride across the harbour (10 minutes) for a classic Hong Kong experience. For the best light, visit late afternoon to see the skyline transition from day to night.
