Tai O Fishing Village is located on the western side of Lautau Island in Hong Kong.This is the Outlying Island, I visited Tai O last year.I tool MTR to Tung Chung Station, then changed bus no.11 from Tung Chung Town Centre to Tai O.
There have many Tanka people and over 5,500 local people.They are processional fisherman since they was young.Catch fish is the main earning and salary to maintain their living.So their are very famous of all the fresh seafood.esp their shrimp is very famous and tasty.
Can u guess what are he doing?
He is cooking the "small egg cake" with choco flavor"
In the village there are lots of temples. These include: War God Temple, Yanghou Temple, Hongsheng Temple, Tianhou Temple.War God Temple has been standing in the village ever since the Ming Dynasty.U can found out many old style and building from Tai O.It's the place for tourist 'must see' if only to contrast the old and new Hong Kong. The local people come and go by boat. U can see the small house from my photo is for the local people living.They named as 'pangwu' meaning 'bamboo houses' or 'stilt houses'.
Hope u can enjoy the old style of Hong Kong-Tai O.
