-
Fanling’s Tang Chung Ling ancestral hall belongs to the foremost clan in the New Territories. The Lung Yeuk Tau heritage trail is nearby.
Warrior image, Fanling
-
The name means “brocade field”, although these days any crops are more likely to be decorated with rusty cars. Traditional walled villages at Kat Hing Wai and Shui Tau.
-
Off the beaten track, and therefore its walled village is less busy than others.
-
Quaint fishing village turned expatriate haunt. Pubs with names like Steamers and the Duke of York, offset by old Chinese men click-clacking mahjong tiles in tiny cafés.
-
Less grim version of Tsuen Wan, with a massive shopping centre. Home to Hong Kong’s second racetrack.
-
Home to another of the main local clans, the Lius. From here, it’s a quick cab ride to Lok Ma Chau, one of the border crossings, where the architects-on-acid skyline of Shenzhen looms through the pall. Another ancestral hall.
-
Its market and Railway Museum are worth a quick look, before making your way to scenic Plover Cove.
-
One of the New Territories’ best-kept secrets. Picturesque little island where villagers watch the world go by from quaint homes.
-
This stronghold of the Tsang clan dates back to 1848 and is built in typical Hakka style, with thick walls and a defensive tower in each corner. Dozens of families still live here.
-
This is the terminus of the MTR line and a perfect example of new town overcrowding. Worth a look just to glimpse Hong Kong life at its bleakest.
