Lai Chi Wo

Lai Chi Wo is situated on the northeastern coast of the New Territories, surrounded by Plover Cove Country Park, Lai Chi Wo Special Area, and Yan Chau Tong Marine Park. It is also part of the Hong Kong UNESCO Global Geopark. This small rural area boasts a variety of habitats, including Fengshui forests, freshwater streams, villages, farmland, mangroves, mudflats, and marshes, supporting a rich diversity of life. Lai Chi Wo is a Hakka village with over 300 years of history. Although it began to decline as villagers moved away in the 1960s and 1970s, the village's appearance and cultural traditions have been well preserved.
