Tai O
Towns, Lantau Island
Fodor's Review:
Tucked away on the west of Lantau is Tai O, a fishing village inhabited largely by the tanka (boat people), whose stilt houses have mostly been replaced by government-funded high-rises. Similarly, an old rope-pulled ferry connecting the village proper with a small island has been replaced with a metal bridge. Aging Hakka women, however, haul the ferry back into action on weekends. You can also see salt pans and a 16th-century temple dedicated to Kwan Tai, god of war.
