香港宗教信仰自由,世界各大宗教在香港几乎都有人信奉.香港的华人,主要信仰佛教、道教,“信神”最多.他们虽因袭传统的宗教信仰和风俗习惯,但没有教徒的意识与概念.人们普遍敬奉祖先神位、门神土地.初一和十五必上香或点“蜡烛灯”,逢喜事及传统节日也要拜祭一番,平时到庙宇中去求神拜佛以求转运或求签者也不少.
据华人庙宇条例规定,香港所有庙宇都必须注册.根据统计,香港寺院共有360多间,公共庙宇有40座,天后庙宇24座.由于香港近海,从事渔业、航运者众,故在庙宇中,供奉最多的是天后.据说天后姓林,福建人,为救渔民舍身投海,后被渔民和海员奉为守护神.据说有信众25万.在香港天后庙中,以大庙湾佛堂门的一所最负盛名.
每年农历三月二十三日天后诞,是香港最为隆重的传统节日之一.在庙宇中供奉的其他神还有观音、北帝、关帝等.许多商店中也设有关帝神位,以求保佑.
中国传统节日如春节、清明、端午、中秋、重阳,其风俗与内地基本一样.为了方便市民过节、回乡,政府还颁布了法定假期.此外,如烧衣(盂兰节,农历七月十四)、七夕(乞巧节)、观音诞、师傅诞、天后诞等,都要举行传统的敬神活动,十分热闹,被列为旅游盛大节目.
港人早餐多到茶楼饮茶,吃粤式点心或到餐室饮“西茶”(奶茶、柠檬茶、咖啡、面包).工作人员的午餐一般吃工作餐、快餐或到酒家茶楼饮午茶.晚餐才是正餐,多为粤式传统饮食方式.港人相约饮茶时常互相斟茶.宴请之类,多在晚上9时开席,主人4时左右已在恭候客人,并设麻将台娱宾,不打麻将者一般7时左右到达为好.入席一般随意,但客人要待主人说“起筷”才开始进食.用膳时,手肘不可横抬、枕桌；不可“飞象过河”,即伸筷取远处碟子中的菜；不能“美人照镜”,将碟子拿起来倒菜；喝汤不要发出声响,餐毕碗中不要留食.饮酒吃菜时,不宜手不离筷,祝酒尚礼到,力邀则失礼.上鱼时,鱼头要对着客人方向,吃时不要翻转鱼身(寓“翻船”之意).
港人对菜名亦有很多忌讳,不吉祥的名字都改个吉祥的叫法,如猪肝叫猪润,因“肝”与“干枯”同音；丝瓜称胜瓜,因“丝”字与“输”字谐音；“舌”叫“利”,因“舌”与“蚀”同音.很多菜肴还起了吉利的名字,如一本盈万利(酱鸭舌)、年年庆有余(松子黄鱼)、金玉满堂红(蜜汁金华火腿)、花开添富贵(蟹肉西兰花)等.
香港人对号码、数字也很讲究,“3”和“8”是他们最乐于追求的数字,认为这二字最吉祥.“3”的广东话谐音是“生”,寓生气、生财、生龙活虎；“8”的广东话谐音是“发”,寓发财、发达.有些商店也喜欢用吉祥号码做店名,如“168时装店”、“338发型屋”等.“168’’的谐音是“一路发”,“338’’的谐音是“生生发”,“238’’的谐音则是“易生发”.
香港位于东西两大文明交融与传播的枢纽位置,是东西方文化巧妙而又温馨结合起来的城市实体.即使在繁华的闹市,至今也保留着中国传统文化的民风民俗,如送礼时忌送钟(送终)、书籍(输)、毯子(压财).赌马打麻将,忌人来借钱、取钱.做生意,第一宗必望其成交,多减些价也在所不惜,最忌客人讲价而不买.此外,港人也颇迷信,除参神求签外,风水掌相之类盛行,笃信神鬼轮回之说也不乏其人,忌不吉利同音字也颇厉害.
