The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR), a fomer British colony which was reunited with the People's Republic of China in 1997, welcomes millions of international travellers every year for business and tourism.

The HKSAR is part of the Pearl River Delta region, a rapidly interconnecting economic area on the southern coast of China that includes booming cities such as Shenzhen, Zhongshan, Guangzhou, and China's other SAR, Macau.
