Overview
From street sleepers, subdivided flats to modern and luxurious ‘nano’-sized studio flats, Sham Shui Po is a place where you can see a wide spectrum of locals residing in. With its rich history, even it is perhaps known as one of the poorest districts in Hong Kong, it can be a fascinating district if you are interested to go beyond the usual touristy spots. During this tour, we will taste selected local street foods while navigating through busy markets and streets. If you are an artistic and coffee enthusiast, we can also go explore alleys, fabric shops and cafes, and breathe how the district is evolving and gentrifying.

Tin Hau Temple (sham Shui Po)

Sham Shui Po was formerly a bay where many fishing junks berthed. The fishing folks looked to the supernatural power to keep them safe on the sea and built this temple in honor of Tin Hau, the Goddess of the Sea in 1913. The temple originally faced the seashore and had good Fung Shui. Nowadays, it is tucked in the midst of high-rise buildings.
