Two People's Liberation Army naval vessels are scheduled to dock in Hong Kong for a five-day port call starting July 2, according to reports from the South China Morning Post.
The destroyer Nanning and frigate Hengyang will be open to residents for boarding and cultural exchange activities during the visit.
The deployment coincides with heightened military activity in the region.
Over the weekend, the PLA dispatched vessels and aircraft to the South China Sea to monitor joint US-Philippine maritime drills near the disputed Scarborough Shoal.
Beijing has characterized these exercises as provocative, while also accusing Japanese warplanes and ships of conducting surveillance operations during a recent deployment of its Liaoning aircraft carrier group to the western Pacific.
For market participants, the port call serves as a visible signal of China's naval posture in one of the world's busiest shipping hubs.
