Kaleidoscope Hidden in Christmas Tree: Most Fantastical Holiday Display Draws Tourists from Around the World

Aside from shopping and sightseeing, Hong Kong’s streets transform into a riot of color and glamour every Christmas. In the historic Leighton Road shopping district in Wan Chai, which previously wowed visitors with a giant moon installation during the Mid-Autumn Festival, this year's Christmas decorations are more unique than ever. The most distinctive feature is a 13-meter-tall Christmas tree, housing a mirrored kaleidoscope room that reflects infinitely in all directions, making it a must-photo spot on international tourists’ Instagram feeds.

Stepping through the red doors of Leighton Road’s 13-meter Christmas tree feels like entering another fantastical realm. The interior is adorned with red and yellow holiday lights, and the reflections from surrounding mirrors make the whole space burst with vivid hues. Topped with variously shaped Christmas ornaments hanging from above, the dreamy setting looks stunning in every photo.
