The map above is centered on Hong Kong, Hong Kong, near Statue Square (Central), with a default 10 km radius. Drag to move it, search for a different address, or change the radius and unit using the controls.
Hong Kong sits on a deepwater harbour on the south China coast, divided between Hong Kong Island (south of the harbour), Kowloon (north of the harbour), and the New Territories (further north, bordering mainland China). Mountainous terrain and water dominate the geometry, and population concentrates on a thin urban strip. Distances here are measured from Statue Square in Central (22.281 N, 114.159 E). Distances here are straight-line from Statue Square (Central) — the same way the radius map measures them.

Hong Kong is split across Hong Kong Island, Kowloon, and the New Territories. Measured straight-line from Statue Square in Central, a 10 km radius reaches Tsim Sha Tsui, Mong Kok, Kowloon Tong, and east to Tseung Kwan O, while Hong Kong International Airport lies about 24 km west and the far New Territories towns such as Tuen Mun (~23 km northwest) sit near the edge of a 25 km radius.

A 3 km radius from Statue Square covers the central districts of Hong Kong Island, the lower Mid-Levels, and reaches Tsim Sha Tsui across Victoria Harbour.
A 5 km radius covers the central districts of Hong Kong Island, the Peak, and southern Kowloon across the harbour, reaching Mong Kok and Kowloon Bay.
A 10 km radius reaches Tsim Sha Tsui, Mong Kok, and Kowloon Tong across the harbour, and extends east to Tseung Kwan O.
A 25 km radius reaches the inner New Territories towns — Sha Tin, Tsuen Wan, Yuen Long — and out as far as Tuen Mun and Hong Kong International Airport.
A 50 km radius reaches every place on this page, including Hong Kong International Airport and the New Territories towns of Tuen Mun and Yuen Long, and extends well beyond them.
City-specific scenarios where a radius is the right tool — and a sensible radius to start with.
A 3 km radius from Statue Square covers the central districts of Hong Kong Island, the Mid-Levels (~1 km west), and Tsim Sha Tsui (~2 km northeast) across the harbour. Widen to 5 km to pull in Mong Kok (~4 km north) and Kowloon Bay (~5 km northeast).
Suggested starting radius: 3 km for the central core, 5 km to add southern Kowloon
To check walkability around a chosen MTR station, draw a small 500 m radius around it. For area-wide coverage of the urban lines, a 10 km radius from Central reaches as far as Tseung Kwan O (~10 km east) and Kowloon Tong (~6 km north).
Suggested starting radius: 500 m per station, 10 km for the urban network
Hong Kong International Airport sits about 24 km west of Statue Square. A 25 km radius is the smallest band on this page that includes the airport, making it a useful setting for hotel and ground-transport analysis that must cover HKG.
Suggested starting radius: 25 km to include the airport
To cover the inner New Territories towns, extend the radius past the urban core. A 25 km radius from Central reaches Sha Tin (~11 km north), Tsuen Wan (~11 km northwest), Yuen Long (~19 km northwest), and Tuen Mun (~23 km northwest).
Suggested starting radius: 25 km for the inner New Territories
Local geography and infrastructure that change how a radius behaves here. Skipping these is the most common reason a radius decision goes sideways.
A large share of Hong Kong's territory is hillside, country park, or undeveloped land. Population concentrates on narrow strips of flat ground along Victoria Harbour and in a few valleys, so a radius from Central can look generous on the map while much of the enclosed area is uninhabited parkland.
Victoria Harbour separates Hong Kong Island from Kowloon, with Tsim Sha Tsui sitting about 2 km northeast of Statue Square across the water. Despite the short straight-line distance, the harbour is a major infrastructure boundary, and cross-harbour road and rail tunnels are the binding constraint on travel between the two sides.
Hong Kong is administratively one Special Administrative Region but functionally three parts: Hong Kong Island south of the harbour, Kowloon to the north, and the New Territories beyond Kowloon. A radius drawn from Central does not reach the inner New Territories town of Sha Tin until about 11 km north.
A 10 km radius from Statue Square reaches Tsim Sha Tsui, Mong Kok, and Kowloon Tong (~6 km north) across the harbour, and extends east to Tseung Kwan O (~10 km east). Sha Tin and Tsuen Wan, both about 11 km out, fall just outside it.
A 25 km radius reaches the inner New Territories — Sha Tin (~11 km north), Tsuen Wan (~11 km northwest), Yuen Long (~19 km northwest), and Tuen Mun (~23 km northwest). Hong Kong International Airport, about 24 km west, also falls inside.
Yes. The airport sits about 24 km west of Statue Square, just inside a 25 km radius. A 10 km radius does not reach it.
Tuen Mun is about 23 km northwest of Statue Square in a straight line, placing it near the edge of a 25 km radius and well outside a 10 km radius.
For an individual station, draw a small radius of around 500 m to capture the immediate walkable area. For broader coverage of the urban lines, a 10 km radius from Central reaches as far as Tseung Kwan O (~10 km east) and Kowloon Tong (~6 km north); extend to 25 km to include the New Territories towns such as Sha Tin and Tuen Mun.
