Dream - Pulau Peng Chau or 'flat island' is located an hour's ferry ride from the central business district on Hong Kong island, making it the next hidden gems tourist destination. To get to this island, you can take a ferry from Central Pier No. 6, which can be accessed from the Hong Kong MTR Station. The journey takes approximately 30-60 minutes.
During the journey to Peng Chau, you are guaranteed not to be bored. Because you can enjoy the beauty of Hong Kong Island, while taking photos or making videos for social media content. Definitely cool!
Back to talking about Peng Chau, it is one of the small islands in Hong Kong. With an area of ​​no more than 100 hectares, Peng Chau offers a different experience for those of you who want to take a momentary break from the hustle and bustle of the urban jungle. Peng Chau is known as the 'Flat Island' which comes from the word 'Peng' which means 'flat' and 'Chau' means 'island'. Climbing this island is also not difficult and its peak is only about 96 meters high.
Yup, finally we arrived at Peng Chau pier. The atmosphere there is so peaceful. Peng Chau is indeed one of the motor vehicle-free islands. Therefore, tourists are truly invited to enjoy a peaceful 'retreat' while exploring a small piece of hidden paradise in Hong Kong.
According to historical records, business activities in Peng Chau developed rapidly during the mid-Qing dynasty (1644-1911), and in some areas, time seemed to have stopped for several decades.
Although small in size, this charming island is filled with Instagrammable and photogenic corners, ranging from remnants of old factories, beaches and temples, to street art that adds spirit to this peaceful community. You can also find one of the iconic filming locations for "Under Parallel Skies," a film starring the handsome actor from Thailand, Win Metawin, in Peng Chau. Every corner of Peng Chau, which was once home to Hong Kong's largest match factory, is so enchanting.
Many dilapidated village houses have been renovated, and the abandoned concrete husk like Fook Yuen leather factory has been transformed into an "secret garden" art space showcasing graffiti and installation artworks.
Visiting Peng Chau would not be complete without tasting its delicious cuisine. Several cha chaan teng (traditional Hong Kong cafes) and small restaurants are available along Wing On Street, just a short walk from the ferry pier. For more food and drink options, there is a supermarket on Po Peng Street; many local vendors on Wing On and Wing Hing streets also sell fruits, snacks, bottled water, and other beverages.
Do not miss a visit to Lung Mo Temple, yes while in Peng Chau. Lung Mo is the Chinese Water Goddess worshipped by the local villagers who often spend time at sea.
This temple, which was opened next to Tung Wan Beach in 1971, is the largest on the island and has an interior decorated with gold. Legend says that couples who touch the bed of the goddess will be blessed with a good marriage and a greater chance of having children. So engrossed in exploring Peng Chau, we didn't realize that the trip was already over. But it feels like we could stay here longer.
After finishing the visit, we continued by taking a ferry to Mui Wo, Lantau Island. Visiting a restaurant with a super cool view. What is it like? Wait for the next news.
Finding entertainment in the midst of a hike is a way to keep the spirit alive.
