The water of Lake Louise has an emerald colour which comes from rock flour carried into the lake by melt-water from the glaciers that overlook the lake. The view from above can be reached by a nice, not too strenuous hike. Do mind the weather though, on the way back we really got soaked in a heavy thunderstorm.
After flying for about 11 hours, we landed in Hong Kong for a stopover around 9 in the morning.Since we would only leave in the evening, there was plenty of time to visit Victoria Peak for a great view over the Hong Kong skyline.
