On The Road (Chinese: 向世界出發) is a Cantonese television travel series produced by Television Broadcasts Limited in Hong Kong. The show is currently in its third season.

Meaning of Title in Chinese

The meaning of the title in Chinese "向世界出發", which gives a sense of the start of a journey to different parts of the global, experiencing different cultures and customs of different nations.

Premise

The show differs from the typical travel series produced by TVB, as it deals mainly with philosophical and life issues, rather than sightseeing and entertainment. The show would use a particular location's social life or struggles to bring out the intended topic for a particular arc.

Although rival television station ATV has made travel series based on relatively the same premises, this is the first time a series based on this genre received high ratings, mainly due to the dominant ratings advantage TVB has enjoyed since the advent of television broadcasting in Hong Kong.
