Hong Kong is open to leisure tourists and is seeing healthy visitor growth right now. The main travel issues are legal/cautionary rather than conflict-related: national-security-law enforcement, device/password scrutiny, and the usual typhoon-season weather risk. For most visitors it is a functioning, busy destination with normal tourism services.
