Lai Chi Wo

#HongKongInDepthTour Lai Chi Wo is located within the Plover Cove Country Park in the northeastern New Territories. It is a Hakka village with a history of over 400 years. The village is backed by mountains and faces the sea, built according to the terrain, preserving a large number of original stone houses and ancestral halls, and maintaining the traditional village layout intact. After years of conservation and revitalization, Lai Chi Wo has now become a model for promoting sustainable development and eco-tourism. The village features several educational trails that introduce mangroves, river wetlands, butterflies, and bird ecology. Notably, villagers collaborate with non-profit organizations to launch agricultural revival projects and ecological guided tours, allowing visitors to personally participate in rice planting, harvesting, or traditional handicraft making. During festivals, there are also dragon and lion dances and Hakka basin cuisine events, showcasing strong community cohesion. Lai Chi Wo is not only a result of cultural preservation but also a practice of the concept of "coexistence between humans and nature." Visiting here allows you to enjoy natural beauty and truly experience the history and vitality of Hong Kong’s countryside.
