As part of the Great Outdoors Hong Kong (GOHK) 2021-2022 summer campaign, the Hong Kong Tourism Board has released soothing sensory videos created under the 360 Hong Kong Moments initiative that capture and bottle the city’s auditory essence into highly immersive and pleasurable viewing experiences.

Four distinctly themed Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response (ASMR) videos with each featuring 30-second snapshots of dreamy environmental acoustics heard in far-flung corners of the city have been launched as part of the initiative. The videos are designed to stimulate the senses and to heighten one’s sensitivity to the harmonic countryside symphonies just a stone’s throw from the city.

Both calming and provoking, the videos include ASMR in Peng Chau which invokes a ship’s horn, a temple’s chimes and the hypnotic kaucim (shaking of fortune sticks), ASMR in Shing Mun Reservoir allows viewers to listen to the soothing sounds of Swaying leaves, dripping waterfalls, chirping birds and flapping wings angle, ASMR in Sai Kung delves into the myriad tones and timbres of the open sea, while ASMR in Stanley spans splashing in the ocean and swooshing open a paper fan, to biting into a piece of deliciously warm French toast at a local cha chaanteng diner.

HKTB will also showcase 13 seasonal routes, covering hiking and sightseeing destinations, island-hopping itineraries and water sports experiences.

A particular focus has been made on water-based activities, which are easily accessible but often overlooked by visitors who might not be well-acquainted with the green side of Hong Kong. For summer, the campaign includes recommendations for activities like kayaking and snorkelling near Hong Kong UNESCO Global Geopark in Sai Kung, the city’s back garden.

The entire Great Outdoors Hong Kong 2021-2022 campaign has been hosted on its own dedicated campaign website, and is packed to the brim with useful information, like insider tips, dining recommendations and transportation suggestions for visitors.
