Skylines and views - part 2: Views from Sky 100 (ICC) and Central Plaza

The skyline of Hong Kong is really impressive. Due to the position as an important financial center, and the lack of space for residential buildings, Hong Kong has more skyscrapers then any other city in the world. As one of the densest place in the world, the majority of all office, residential and hotel buildings are all scraping the sky.

This part is concentrated to the skyline views from the tallest and 3rd tallest buildings in Hong Kong: International Commerce Center (ICC) is Hong Kong's tallest building.
