Cheung Chau
Over the years, Cheung Chau has transformed from a prosperous fishing village into a community full of character but still preserves the typical portrait of a traditional Chinese fishing village with hard-working fishermen and numerous stores selling seafood products. Known as the back garden in Hong Kong for both locals and tourists, Cheung Chau are filled with special restaurants and unique souvenir shops. While the temples and historical remains offer varied choices for those who want to explore traditional Chinese legends, others may prefer a leisure walk along the beaches with spectacular sea views.
