On The Star Ferry To Kowloon

By jodapoet  |  Location: Hong Kong  |  03/28/08
The first news report of the star ferry seafaring vessel was reported in 1888.  Since that time the ferry has endured many a hardship with typhoons and wars.  Today it is the main mode of transportation between Hong Kong Island and Kowloon.   Each vessel can carry up to 200 passengers and runs every few minutes.  The star ferry has a charm about it and is loved not only by the locals but by tourists alike.  I would ride the ferry at least twice a day if not more - just for the sake of taking that ride.
