Hong Kong is located in eastern Asia, on the southeast coast of China, facing the South China Sea. Hong Kong is 60 kilometers east of Macau on the opposite side of the Pearl River estuary.

Of the territory's 1,092 square kilometers, less than 25 percent is developed, while the remaining land is reserved as country parks and nature reserves.
The Kowloon Peninsula to the south of Boundary Street and the New Territories to the north of Hong Kong Island were added to Colonial Hong Kong in 1860 and 1898 respectively. The body of water between Hong Kong Island and Kowloon Peninsula is Victoria Harbor, one of the deepest maritime ports in the world.
