Po Toi
Po Toi Island, located at the southernmost tip of Hong Kong, is characterized by granite terrain that has weathered over the years into striking rock formations, showcasing a unique coastal erosion landscape. The island’s cliff carvings are estimated to be over 3,000 years old and are designated as official historic monuments of Hong Kong.
Po Toi was once a thriving fishing community, with a population reaching 2,000 in the 1950s. As the fishing industry declined, residents gradually moved away, and now only a few villagers remain. Despite the changes, the island continues to uphold traditions such as the annual Tin Hau Festival and triennial Jiao ("Da Chiu"), which include celebratory performances like Cantonese opera.
