Hong
Kong Cultural Heritage Tour of the New Territories with Tripmart.com
There
is no better way to immerse yourself in Hong Kong's rich history and culture
than with a tour of the New Territories, where Hong Kong's distinct heritage
has been preserved and restored. On this guided bus and walking tour, learn
about Chinese spiritual practices at the Chuk Lam Shim Yuen Monastery and the
Tang Chung Ling Ancestral Hall, and visit the Luen Wo Market and Lo Wai Village
for a glimpse of local life. Make the essential trek to the New Territories to
see Hong Kong like you've never imagined it.
This
tour takes you through the many sites of Hong Kong's New Territories, where
authentic cultural traditions have remained strong throughout the years. With
your expert guide, see the wonders of traditional Chinese architecture with a
visit to Chuk Lam Shim Yuen Monastery. Housing three of Hong Kong's largest
statues of Buddha, this monastery attracts many devout worshippers on a daily
basis.
Maneuver
through Route Twisk toward Tai Mo Shan, the highest peak of Hong Kong, where
you can enjoy wonderful panoramic views. Stop en route to admire views of the
Lam Chuen Valley, the Shek Kong military airport and beyond. On the way to Fan
Ling, pass Kam Tin, the origin of the largest indigenous Tang Clan in Hong
Kong. Stop and rest at the historical Lotus Caf and enjoy some delightful local
refreshments (at own expense).
Afterwards,
discover the market culture of the New Territories with a visit to Luen Wo
Market. The old market was built in the 1950s to serve the surrounding farms
and villages.
It
now stands empty as it was replaced in 2002 by a new air-conditioned version.
Immerse yourself in local life as you browse through fresh produce and herbs at
this multi-story wet market. Visit Tang Chung Ling Ancestral Hall, one of the
largest ancestral halls in Hong Kong.
Admire the interior decor marked by fine
wood carvings, polychrome plaster moldings and murals of auspicious motifs,
truly reflecting the fine craftsmanship and architectural stylings of China.
Next,
visit Lo Wai, the first of five renowned walled villages in Lung Yeuk Tau.
Built by the Tang Clan in the 13th century, this village has basic features
like a drinking well and a raised platform serving as a watchtower. Finish your
Hong Kong cultural tour with a home visit to one of the oldest brick house in
the village. At the end of the tour, complimentary drop-off to original
departure points is provided.
