Destination guide · Best: Oct–Dec (autumn, best weather)
Hong Kong, China
Hong Kong does padel the way it does everything — vertically, ingeniously, in whatever space the city can spare. Rooftop and reclaimed-ground courts are appearing fast, driven by an international crowd hungry for the game. The scene is young but the energy is high, and the surrounding city needs no introduction. Padel with a skyline that plays for keeps.
