On this walk we will learn something of the interesting mixed history of Shau Kei Wan, one of Hong Kong’s oldest village settlements.

Probably best known for its fishing fleet, quarrying was an important local industry in the early British era, and attracted many Hakka migrants, many of whose descendants still live in Shau Kei Wan.

We will visit several old temples including the Tin Hau Temple and the Tam Kung Temple located right on the typhoon shelter, and some little-explored nearby backstreet area and one of Hong Kong Island’s last remaining squatter settlements at Ah Kung Ngam, centred around the tiny Yuk Wong Temple.
