China has long been considered a land of true miracles. The cultural life of the country has long been divided: there are people who lead a traditional way of life, and a new, ultra-modern world has emerged. For a very recently existing conservative China, such an obvious fact is striking, especially for tourists. Some will drink, dance and sing in nightclubs, while others are nearby, as in the old days, respecting strict traditions and morality.
In China, as well as in other countries, the most interesting and popular places are usually located in the very center of the city. This is due to the fact that in this way the clubs become recognizable and in demand. In addition, it is quite easy and convenient for visitors to get to them. This applies to such large and developed cities as Shanghai, Beijing, Hong Kong and Macau. Among the major cities in China, Hong Kong probably ranks first in terms of the number of nightclubs and entertainment venues. Due to its modern pace of life, as well as highly developed culture and connections with other major countries, Hong Kong is rightfully considered an ultra-modern city.
Despite the fact that there are many different clubs and bars in Hong Kong, the prices for entertainment here are not very restrained. Of course, this is not New York or London, but at the same time Hong Kong is the most expensive city in China. Most of the city's nightlife is Irish and British style, with live music and fine dining. Hong Kong also has a sufficient number of places where you can dance, including learning some traditional and distinctive dances.
In turn, Hong Kong is a fairly developed city in Asia, which actually has a very bright and active life. Nightclubs in Hong Kong are considered some of the best in all of Asia, suitable for even the most discerning and sophisticated client. You can have a great time in the clubs. However, they all have distinctive features that must be taken into account. I would like to present to your attention the best clubs in Hong Kong, according to the visitors' opinion. The nightlife here is incredibly diverse. Nightclubs can correspond to common European traditions, or, on the contrary, play in the Chinese flavor. One way or another, tourists have something to see here and where to spend their time with pleasure. Our selection does not pretend to be absolute objectivity, but rather is an overview that can help a tourist find his way and go to the club that is closer to his tastes and preferences.
Beijing Club
This club is one of the largest entertainment venues located on Hong Kong Island, so to speak, in the heart of the city and its cultural and entertainment center. The club occupies a very large area and three floors of one of the large high-rise buildings. The club is famous for its noisy theme parties, where very famous DJs from all over the world perform. This institution is ideal for youth groups to relax.
On the ground floor of the club there are VIP rooms, several spacious lounges and two large bars. In addition, there was a large dance floor that mainly plays RnB and hip-hop music. VIP lounges are distinguished by luxurious furnishings and improved service. There is no need to queue up for a drink at the bar. Moreover, VIP rooms are generally spacious and free, there is never an extra crush in them. This is the best place to come if you are a couple and want some privacy. If, on the contrary, you are looking for new acquaintances, you should pay attention to the general dance floor.
On the next floor of the club there is a very attractive balcony, which means that here visitors can spend time outdoors, enjoying pleasant and relaxing music. There is also a small bar where visitors can order refreshing drinks. The seating area is equipped with LED lighting, which is the brightest spot in this room, as it is made using various colorful shades. Everyone who visits this club is impressed by this technology.
And finally, the last floor occupied by the club is a luxury floor, as it hosts world-renowned DJs and an amazing restaurant. The entire hall is also equipped with lighting.

Dragon-I
This club is also located on Hong Kong Island and is quite large in terms of its area. Its distinctive feature is that the interior of the premises is decorated in a traditional style, which is quite popular among world designers and architects. All walls, floors, furniture inside are made of exclusive materials, in many respects repeating either the color or the skin of the dragon. That is why there are mainly red items, trimmed with leather.
The dragon is a symbol of China, therefore the theme of these fire-breathing kites, used in the decor of nightclubs, is not a surprise at all. This club is worth visiting, first of all, for those who want to feel China around them as fully as possible. Of course, young people treat all Chinese symbols and dragons in a completely different way, but a certain spirit, the atmosphere of a distant, exotic country remains.
The entire territory of the club is conventionally divided into three main halls (parts). There is a dance floor in the first hall, where you can not only dance, but also have a good time at the small tables located nearby. Behind the dance floor there are VIP rooms. The second part is completely dedicated to the terrace, from where you can see the picturesque beauty of the night city. Also, along the entire perimeter, you can see cages with live birds, which is quite unusual and interesting. And the third part is completely reserved for a bar with a rich assortment of drinks.
Exceptionally the best music and the best DJs play in this club, as it only works with people who are recognized and well-known in the music industry. That is why everyone who comes to this entertainment establishment will not sit on the sidelines, but will dance to the fiery compositions all evening. In addition, this club has a wonderful restaurant where visitors can eat even during the day. As a nightclub, it opens at 23 o'clock and works until the last visitor.
If you want to combine a noisy party with an exclusive interior, then this place is just for you.
You can reserve seats in the restaurant for various celebrations by prior arrangement. However, you should try very hard to get on the list. The fact is that this institution is very popular, and places for celebrations are reserved several months in advance. Therefore, an ordinary tourist who has come to Hong Kong for several days is unlikely to be able to obtain a large number of seats. It will cost too much.
You can get to the club using the metro, as its station (Central) is in close proximity to the establishment. Of course, you can always take a taxi.

Kee
This club was founded in 2001 in Hong Kong by an Austrian couple.

Yumla
Initially, this club was nothing more than a small institution, visitors to which could knock over a couple of glasses of alcohol. However, over time, it has undergone a number of transformations and modernizations, as a result of which it has become rightfully called one of the most popular nightclubs in Hong Kong.
Now Yumla is a small club located in the very center of Hong Kong, which is a kind of leader in terms of music. Here you can dance daily to underground club music. It was thanks to the excellent musical taste of the administration of the club that they managed to make a party very popular among connoisseurs of the underground from a small establishment. As you know, the basis of any nightclub is precisely the visitors. Therefore, this club is interesting precisely for its contingent: interesting people gather here who understand music and have a good time.
The main place in the concept of this institution is given exclusively to music, which sounds everywhere here. In addition, the music played in this club corresponds to completely different directions, so that every visitor will feel as comfortable and fun as possible here. DJs of different directions are invited here, so you should carefully follow the poster. As a rule, the repertoire changes once or twice a week, so it is enough to visit the website of the club in order to navigate what is expected in the near future.
For those who are not very well versed in music, the club offers a wonderful bar, which certainly knows a lot about alcoholic beverages. Bartenders prepare unique cocktails, often striking with their unusual taste. Given the location of the establishment, the prices in it can be considered very fair. At the bar, visitors will get acquainted with a huge assortment of drinks and cocktails on offer, the cost of which is usually about $ 15-20. However, there are various promotions in the bar. Of course, you won't be able to save too much, since nightclubs, by definition, are not a place to save money, but these promotions will help you to have fun and feel the excitement.
It is also worth noting the most important rules for visiting this club. Visitors who have reached the age of 21 are allowed into it. As for clothing, it should not be particularly pretentious and solemn - in a word, such that it is very convenient to dance and move in it. On weekdays, admission to the club is free for absolutely all visitors. On Fridays and Saturdays, admission for non-club members is NK $ 100, which also entitles you to one drink of any kind at no additional cost. If you show yourself as a polite and well-mannered visitor, and also often come to the club, this gives you the right to become its honorary member. This title, in turn, allows you to participate in many promotions and receive special discounts.
You can get to the club on your own using a taxi.

FINDS
This club is most popular among mature audiences, as its main focus is not on the volume and popularity of music and dance, but solely on creating an atmosphere that encourages visitors to communicate. It is in this club that very important working negotiations and parties are held with the aim of concluding agreements and acquiring useful contacts and necessary acquaintances.
That is why the interior of such an institution is made in a rather conservative and calm Scandinavian style, which is characterized by a predominance of light calm shades and simple furniture. There is no bright illumination here, which only distracts attention. However, at the same time, the interior of this club is very expressive and unique, and also fully corresponds to the status of the people who come to it.
An important advantage of this institution is also the fact that it is located in the central part of the city, thanks to which you can easily get to it by taxi and just as easily then to your home. Location is quite an important factor, especially for tourists. Agree, no one wants to get to the outskirts of an unfamiliar metropolis. This is especially true of Hong Kong, since Chinese characters are completely incomprehensible to a tourist.
Mostly the audience of this institution is people of mature age who consider themselves to be wealthy and business.
Of course, it is necessary to reserve seats in the club in advance, and its experienced professional managers will help you choose the appropriate menu for the holiday that meets all your requests, even the most pampered and demanding ones.
As for the prices for the services of such an institution, they fully correspond to the status, and only very wealthy people can afford to spend time in it. However, it is worth it, as as a result, visitors manage to combine work moments with a very cultural and interesting pastime.
Zenses Cristal Bar
It is actually a unique institution due to the fact that its main attraction is the very unusual design of the interior space. The club seems to be specially created for fastidious visitors who have seen a lot, who simply have nothing to surprise with. A modern nightclub is, first of all, style and atmosphere. Sophisticated party-goers and nightlife lovers are accustomed to exquisite designs and unusual solutions, so it becomes more and more difficult to surprise the audience. In this regard, this institution can offer an outlandish interior even to the most demanding visitors.
All walls are decorated with vivid painting of abstract forms, behind which each visitor sees something of his own, depending on his own imagination, thinking and way of life. That is, the interior is so unique that you will want to come here again and again. You seem to be transported into a mythical and fantastic world of adventure. The colors are chosen in such a way that they are not annoying or annoying at all. It is especially interesting that different parts of the establishment are decorated in completely different ways, so even when visitors return here after previous visits, they can discover something new for themselves. People often bring their friends to show them the decor elements that surprised them.
However, this is not all that the owners of the Zenses Cristal Bar club can surprise their visitors with. Lighting elements are located along the entire perimeter, additionally decorated with crystals Swarowski that you can admire just sitting at a table with a glass of good wine. This design classifies the institution as status and important. This craving for "shine" is transmitted to the visitors. Really brilliant youth can be found here. Girls, going to this club, try to dress stylishly and beautifully so that the radiance of the environment does not overshadow their own radiance. Therefore, for those who like to plunge into the world of female beauty, this is another reason to go to this club.
The dance floor is also decorated in bright colors. The tiles used on it are highlighted when stepped on, which is also very interesting and funny. This special effect makes the dance more vivid and impressive. The entire dance floor seems to come to life under the feet of the dancers. Going out to such a platform, you get the impression that you are standing on the surface of the ocean made of music.
That is, on the basis of the above, we can conclude that this club is mainly suitable for connoisseurs of extraordinary solutions in the design of the club, as well as those who wish to spend time perfectly, but at the same time, without excessive activity. The prices of such an institution can hardly be called affordable, which is why important personalities visit it by appointment, since the number of places is strictly limited.

Club fly
The FLY club is quite unusual, as are most of the establishments of this kind in Hong Kong. Its interior combines wood, intertwined with greenery and flowers, and simply disposes its visitors to lightness and sublimity. Plus, you'll have a huge dose of adrenaline in one night at this club, thanks to the huge, brightly lit dance floor.
The predominance of glass in interior decoration also corresponds to the atmosphere of lightness and airiness, and this applies to both decoration and furniture. This club is ideal for connoisseurs of electronic music in all its forms. The glass interior creates a sense of transparency and openness. There are not so many quiet corners and secret places where you can retire, everything is in plain sight. And for some, this is only a plus, since they do not want to hide, but, on the contrary, like to be in the spotlight.
The second hall of the club is located in such a way that the effect of listening to music is enhanced by all kinds of amplifiers and converters. The entire interior space is decorated with lighting. Only professional DJs work here, whose skill and professionalism are recognized all over the world. In addition, the club is located in one of the central districts of the city, thanks to which it is possible to get into it only by pre-booking tickets.
Mostly people come here who want to relieve negativity, stress, or get rid of the tension of a working day. And they do it very well. Here you can completely abandon boring worries and troubles and dissolve in high-quality electronic music. The absence of pressing elements of the interior, its cleanliness and lightness allow you to relax better and more calmly. This club does not shape the mood of visitors, but helps them to reveal their own essence.
It should be noted that the club is closed on Monday. From Tuesday to Friday, it opens its doors to visitors from 5 pm, and on Saturday from 9 pm. The average entrance fee is 200 NK $.

Tribeca
Tribeca is actually one of the largest entertainment complexes in Hong Kong. The club occupies a very extensive territory (about 8000 sq. M), which includes several halls. The first hall of the club that welcomes visitors is a small hall with a dance floor located in the center. Here you can mainly dance to the fiery rhythms of hip-hop and R&B. Behind it, through a platform with curved walls, the next hall is located, in which there is a bar with a length of 8 meters, at the counter of which 30 people can safely sit at the same time. In addition, when passing by the bar, it is impossible not to notice the largest dance floor of this club.
This club is mainly suitable for those who like active recreation, accompanied by dancing and singing. That is, we can say that the regular customers of this institution are mainly young people, since it is here that they can come off to the fullest. Electronic music predominates here, although performers of "live" instrumental compositions are often invited. The policy of the administration of this club is to select only the most popular musicians. Much attention is paid to the reaction of the public itself. That is, the performer's rating is determined not by abstract scales, but by the reaction of the audience of a given club to his work.
Tribeca is the so-called "Asian brother" of the club of the same name, but located in New York. The walls and bar in this club are covered with luxurious natural amber panels, trimmed with crystals for greater pomp. Two VIP lounges are located on the territory of the club. Their significant difference, and at the same time an advantage, is that they are raised above the main level of the common platform, and also separated from the common space by means of plastic partitions. The third area is the so-called living room, furnished with dark leather furniture. As a rule, jazz music lovers spend their time here. When describing such a club, it should be said that its art director is Silvio Van - a truly legendary person in the world of organizing parties and celebrations, which is at least one of the reasons to visit this club at least once. It is thanks to him that the most famous and fashionable DJs in the world play records in Tribeca.
Before visiting the club, you should take into account that there is a certain dress code in it. You should come to the club only in festive and at the same time strict clothes. On Sundays, it hosts a themed salsa party. In addition, admission is free for all girls on Thursday.

The Makumba club is no less interesting and attractive in Hong Kong. A distinctive feature of this nightlife establishment is African music constantly playing inside its walls. Accordingly, the interior is fully consistent with this, that is, quite bright colors and shades, national musical instruments prevail. The walls are hung with the skins of wild animals, mostly leopards. For those who are tired of dancing, there are quite attractive and comfortable leather sofas, as well as traditional couches with silk cushions, just in the safari style. In this club, visitors spend their time quite brightly, and also get skills in the dances of the peoples of Africa, which is quite good for diversified development.
Thus, this nightclub is suitable for connoisseurs of the art of African tribes, as well as for lovers of a fairly rich and informal pastime. It may seem a little strange to some to listen to African music in Hong Kong, but there is even something screamingly exotic about it. Agree, this is exotic squared: to be in a club where African music sounds, and you are surrounded by Chinese faces.
It should also be noted that visitors who come in national costumes are provided with privileges, first of all, free admission, as well as the opportunity to choose a drink at the expense of the institution.
This institution works every day from 19 pm.

This club is one of the most private in Hong Kong, which attracts visitors like a magnet. All this is due to the fact that local celebrities like to spend time in it, with whom ordinary residents of the city and tourists just dream of meeting. A certain feature is that the club uses neon for lighting, that is, red lighting. At first glance, it may seem that this irritates the eyes, but in fact, it has a very beneficial effect on visitors. At the same time, visitors are pleased with very pleasant music in the style of house, R&B and Latin. Everyone can dance and relax here. After energetic dancing, those who wish can go to the bar, where there are velvet sofas, on which you can retire, fencing yourself off from prying eyes with the help of a curtain.
The popularity of this club among celebrities is explained by the very attractive interior, combined with an excellent selection of music, as well as the ability to hold important events and meetings, for which noisy surroundings are still not suitable. Fashion also plays an important role: at the moment this club is simply fashionable among the elite and bohemians, therefore they prefer to hang out here. Fashion is changeable, but at the moment, tourists who are lucky enough to visit here can see the most famous world-famous actors and musicians live.
And, undoubtedly, only professionals work here, who will make the rest as pleasant and memorable as possible.

Propaganda
Propaganda is the oldest and most famous nightclub in Hong Kong. Its main difference is that its doors are also open to sexual minorities. Here visitors can enjoy music of various styles and trends. The bar area is decorated with very attractive furnishings to delight visitors. Opposite there is a fairly large dance floor, where a lot of people gather on weekends. In addition, the room has a small equipped stage where dancers and animators perform on holidays and entertain visitors.
Perhaps the attractiveness of this club is largely determined by affordable prices and good location. In addition, there is no dress code per se. Therefore, everyone can come here without worrying about their appearance at all.
The club is open from Tuesday to Saturday, Sunday and Monday are days off. Moreover, on weekdays the club starts working from 10 pm, and on Saturday - from 9 pm, no matter how strange it may sound. Well, he works until the last visitor.
The average entrance fee is 200 NK $, it all depends on the time of arrival at the club, usually the later, the more expensive the entrance. I would like to note right away that there is no need to reserve seats in advance.

NO. nine
This club is located in the heart of Hong Kong's financial district. It is here, in spite of numerous high-rise buildings, that one of the best nightclubs is located, inviting everyone, including tourists.
The balcony of this establishment offers a stunning view of the beauty of the city. In addition, the locals can also observe this establishment right from the street thanks to the illumination.
This club is most often chosen for hosting parties necessary for the conclusion of contracts and deals. That is why it is not distinguished by noisy musical accompaniment. The interior of the club is decorated in a fairly simple and austere business style, but nevertheless meets all the requirements of functionality and modernity. Partners can retire in VIP rooms, separated from the common room by glass doors.
This club works mainly on weekdays, which is determined by the specifics and its focus.
As for the entrance, you should reserve seats in advance. The entrance ticket costs within 200-300 NK $.

Heat
Heat is actually a place that was able to combine several establishments at the same time. First of all, it is actually a stunning chic restaurant, a bar of the same size and a huge nightclub.
The audience here is mostly selective, as there are certain requirements to be considered when visiting the club. First of all, it concerns age. Only persons over 25 years old can visit such a club. In addition, in no case should you come to this establishment in sports style clothes, as you simply will not be allowed to pass.
The interior of the club is made in a classic style, which is dominated by red, white and black shades that look very harmonious together.
The decoration is dominated by natural materials, mainly wood. This institution attracts true connoisseurs of music of various fashion trends. In addition, themed evenings are periodically held here, where you can enjoy live music, which is actually quite attractive. That is why mostly older people gather here.
As for the pricing policy of the institution, I must say that the prices here are very high, and there is no need to reserve your arrival.

M1NT
This institution, like many other nightclubs in the city, is located in the center of the metropolis and is quite recognizable.
Here visitors can enjoy the beautiful ultra-modern interior as well as well-chosen musical accompaniment. An important feature is the fact that performances of local celebrities are often held here, and it is not difficult to get to them. You just need to buy a ticket in advance - and you can enjoy a wonderful performance all night long.
A crystal chandelier, striking in its size, is located at the entrance to the club and is already considered almost its hallmark. In addition to her, regular visitors know about the presence of a gorgeous aquarium in which there are miniature sharks. The spectacle is truly mesmerizing, and for some time visitors have the feeling that they are in a planetarium.
Nightlife in Hong Kong conventionally begins at six o'clock in the evening. It was at this time that the no different from other streets of Temple Street, Yau Ma Tei district, was blocked. Here traffic stops and hundreds of merchants, whose tenacity any merchandiser will envy, set up their portable tents, filling them with watches from "famous brands" and clothes from "famous designers" that cost a mere penny; cheap jeans and embroidered with rhinestones, tops; silk ties of the most incredible colors and lighters of various shapes; and also sunglasses and swimsuits, magazines and discs, toys and trinkets, and, of course, Chinese souvenirs, on which not a single price tag will ever be pasted to all the tourist's guesses ... But the bazaars and markets of Hong Kong deserve special attention and special post.
Moreover, what kind of working person will need some kind of markets there on Friday evening?
Signs of tattoo parlors are burning with neon advertising lights, spiral columns at hairdressing salons are spinning until late, beauty salons offer incredible discounts (and every Hong Kong girl who considers herself fashionable uses face whitening procedures, and instead of sunblock, she carries a cream from her in her purse), massage parlors call for massages of all kinds, types and purposes: from hair roots to toes ...
A crowd of photographers with sophisticated DSLRs and just onlookers who turned on cameras on their mobiles instantly gathers in front of a poster in front of a shop. What is happening can only be understood by taking a few shots from the crowd, at random, holding the camera on outstretched arms above your head:
What scale, surrounded by photographers, celebrities - "stars" or just models advertising some product, I do not know. On a local scale, the concept of "notoriety" is quite large-scale. Millions really should know you. Or better yet, a billion. 
There are entire bar streets in the Central area, but there is not enough space for everyone in the bars themselves. It is noteworthy that the bars on Central gather, for the most part, Europeans. Lan Kwai Fong also gathers Europeans, where, among other bars, the famous Balalaika restaurant is located. But the Chinese themselves are not so rare on these streets at this time of day: girls with incredibly long eyelashes and guys dyed like blondes - you will not find such people on the street during working hours.
At the same time of day, fortune tellers appear on the streets of other districts, amateur performances of Chinese opera and street canto-pop performers take place. Canto-pop is simple songs about unrequited or shared love. In a word, regular pop music, only performed in Cantonese. Western musical culture has no mass popularity in Hong Kong. 
One of Hong Kong's most famous districts, Whan Chai has a reputation for being a residential, business and shopping district by day and a hot spot at night. The bars and brothels located here have given a bad reputation. Especially brothels. For simplicity, called, for example, Express Club "s. Over one or another glass of beer or something stronger, people at the bars find their" happiness ": 
Or have already found: 
And they go somewhere with him: 
Someone has their own, different Friday evening "happiness": 
In a word, everyone catches their own ... 
At the door of the next "club" is fishing with "live bait". On Lokhart Road, a "bait" sits with a sharp hairpin on the sidewalk: 
The "hook" behaves more persistently. Auntie is already clearly demanding something from someone: 
By the way, a gas station. Contrary to all logic, it is located on the first floor of a completely residential building: 
Many neighborhoods in Hong Kong are equipped with sports and playgrounds. The playroom, as usual, contains an almost standard set of gazebos, swings, slides, stairs ... everything is quite ordinary in appearance, only installed on large square tiles. The tile is soft and literally bounces underfoot. Everything for children. And at any time.
And before we catch a taxi home, we watch for a long time how Chinese teenagers play ball on a basketball court illuminated by lanterns: 
Until a glass bottle of something alcoholic flies off at our feet, touching them and shattering to smithereens. Immediately from the side of the playground, dumbfounded blonde teenagers run out and shout "Sorry, sorry!" cross the road: 
On the site there is evidence of taste preferences: local beer, which is not particularly favored because of its peculiar "chemical" taste; some, probably strong, ale, also produced by a local mini-factory and something Australian ... There is no doubt that this was left by a part of a company that fled in an unknown direction. The streets of Hong Kong (and even more so the playgrounds) are too clean to hold bottles and cans. 
The remaining "half" of the company is sitting on the playground, buried in cell phones. Lovely matured "children" and not yet grown up to bars "adults": 
On the basketball court, the eleventh goal is scored and a finally free taxi drives by ...
