Sai Kung Po Pin Chau - hexagonal rock pillars, large in scale, a world-class geological wonder

Po Pin Chau is located in Leung Shuen Wan, southeast of Sai Kung. It is famous for its hexagonal rock pillars. It is part of the Hong Kong UNESCO World Geopark and one of the most popular natural attractions in Hong Kong. Po Pin Chau was formed due to a violent volcanic eruption at the High Island Reservoir 140 million years ago. A large amount of hot lava condensed and contracted under special environmental conditions, forming the hexagonal rock pillars we see today. The rock structure and geological composition of Po Bin Chau are different from the hexagonal rock pillars in other parts of the world. In addition, its wide distribution area and large scale make it a world-class geological wonder. There are many routes to visit Po Pin Chau. It is recommended to climb the concrete stairs next to the Dongba minibus station. You can also take photos with the landmark columns of Po Pin Chau along the way. The scenery is open and pleasant, and it is relatively safe and easy. #Natural Landscapes #100 Ways to Travel
