"The Hidden Thousand-Mile Rivers and Mountains Painting in Hong Kong”

👉 Tung Ping Chau in Hong Kong hides an extraordinary “natural version of the Thousand-Mile Rivers and Mountains Painting.” You don’t need to visit a museum to see ancient paintings; here you can witness the “scroll of mountains and rivers” painted by nature itself! 👉 This place also features stunning sea erosion landforms and jelly-like transparent seawater. With fewer people and beautiful scenery, it’s a paradise for travelers and photography enthusiasts! 🚢【Transportation Guide】 🚏 Take the MTR to 【University Station】 Exit B → Walk 15 minutes to 【Ma Liu Shui Pier】 (operates only on weekends/holidays) ➡️ Departure: Saturdays and Sundays at 9:00 AM (an additional trip at 3:00 PM on Saturdays) ⬅️ Return: 5:15 PM (last trip! Don’t miss it) 👉 The boat ride takes about 1.5 hours, 💰 round-trip ticket costs 100 HKD (Octopus card/cash accepted) 🗺️【Photo Check-in Route】 ✔️ The island loop is about 4-5 kilometers, taking around 3 hours to walk and take photos: ✔️ Pier ➡️ Ah Ma Wan ➡️ Geng Lou Rock ➡️ Lung Lok Shui ➡️ Zhan Jing Chau ➡️ Cheung Sha Wan ➡️ Return to Pier 📷【Must-Visit Photo Spots】 1️⃣ Geng Lou Rock 🌟 Twin sea erosion pillars at the east end of the island, resembling an ancient city tower—super spectacular! Best to shoot at sunrise, wide-angle lens recommended~ 2️⃣ Lung Lok Shui 🌟 A long gray-white rock layer extending from the mountainside into the water, with triangular edges resembling a divine dragon winding into the sea. The view from above is ever-changing and breathtaking. 3️⃣ Zhan Jing Chau 🌟 A mountain wall passage naturally split open, with crystal-clear seawater! The aerial view is stunning (note the strong sea breeze). 4️⃣ Cheung Sha Wan Beach 🌟 The seawater is clear and jelly-like, with small fish visible in the shallow water. The beach is covered with colorful shells that shine under the sun, creating a dreamy scene—perfect for snorkeling and shell collecting. ⁉️【Tips】 🔸 Always travel with companions, safety first 🔸 Bring light snacks and at least 2L of water; there is only one convenience store on the island, cash only 🔸 Sunscreen, hats, sunglasses, etc., the UV rays by the sea are strong, so protect yourself 🔶 Wear light-colored clothes! White, light blue dresses, and colorful rock layers match perfectly
