As a special administrative region of China, Hong Kong retained its economic system and social system under the guidance of the "one country, two systems" policy. Therefore, as the only common law jurisdiction region in China, Hong Kong has a distinctive feature of legal education which has many differences with mainland China. As the global economic integration and economic structure adjustment in Hong Kong, the legal education in Hong Kong has kept changing and the trend of integration with mainland legal education has been more obvious. This article will focus on the various aspects of legal education in Hong Kong and use comparison analysis method to put forward on the development of legal education in mainland China. The last part of this paper will give feasible suggestions from the perspective of subject setting, legal practice, interdisciplinary training and lawyer training to promote the further integration of legal education system in both places.
