Tung Chung to Tai O

 Hello My Dear Great Ones,

The Tung Chung to Tai O ancient trail is a must do in Hong Kong.  It took me ten years to finally do it, but I am glad I did.  The sights on the trail are varied and interesting.  Old run down houses, villages,  dramatic coast lines, and the most incredible bridge in the world are all part of the experience.  Celia and I had a Friday afternoon off so we embarked on our little adventure about 1:00 pm from Tung Chung and got to Tai O around 5 o'clock.  Here are a few things we encountered:



Ancient buildings.


Lots of trees and vegetation.

Great views.

Giant Buddha gondola.


Interesting villages.


Some tough trails.  A good test for my wonky knee.

Amazing views...

Behind us, part of an amazing bridge. More on that below....

Wildlife.

An unfriendly village.



Celia catching up with school work....  Cell connection is good on the trail.

Wow

Lovely Tai O.  A must see.




Having a tea.

View of Tai O from afar.

And now some info about an amazing bridge.....








For an interesting 14 km hike Tung Chung to Tai O is a winner.

Have a great week!

Love, adios, and ping on!

Dirk
