[2025 Hong Kong Shopping Mall] Travel Guide for STK Farm (Updated Mar)

📍Address: Sha Tau Kok, North District, New Territories 🏖️Environment/Facilities: Quiet and beautiful environment 💰Average Cost: Free 💞Recommended Reason: Quite unique In fact, areas such as Wu Kau Tang, Kuk Po, So Lo Pun, Lai Chi Wo, and the islands around Yan Chau Tong, with Kat O being the most prominent, are all part of Sha Tau Kok. The part within Hong Kong has been developed into a small town and is currently still a restricted border area. However, you can freely visit Sha Tau Kok, which has the longest pier in Hong Kong, by applying for a restricted area permit online in advance. Currently, it can only be reached by public transportation. The unique Housing Society public housing, well-equipped community facilities, friendly and enthusiastic villagers, and old Cantonese-style verandah houses give a sense of time travel. The mysterious restricted area is definitely worth visiting to experience and taste local snacks. Unfortunately, due to time constraints, the visit might feel a bit rushed.

After the last expedition to Lu Neck in the northeast, I finally have the opportunity to go deep into the most difficult place in Hong Kong😎, it is the last two years of finally lifting the ban in Sha Tau Kok😚, today let me unveil the mystery of Sha Tau Kok for you🤗 So what's so special about Sha Tau Kok😚?

Since the water level of the sea in Sha Tau Kok is relatively shallow, we had to extend the pier to facilitate large ships The largest public housing estate in Hong Kong 🏘️ Another of the best in Hong Kong is Sha Tau Kok Estate😃, not to mention, it turns out that Sha Tau Kok Estate is the largest public housing estate in Hong Kong 🏘️, with a total of 51 blocks in four phases, more than Pacific City and Mongkok New Estate Many 😯, and Sha Tau Kok Estate adopts European architectural style, the exterior walls of each building are painted with different colors 🌈, full of vitality 🥰, plus Sha Tau Kok Estate is built by the sea, so many units have sea views 🌊, open view 👍.

This is our first visit here after the Sha Tau Kok restricted area was opened. Shenzhen and Hong Kong are not only separated by a river, but also by a street, which feels very interesting. In addition to arriving by bus or minibus from land (Fanling or Sheung Shui), Hong Kong citizens can also come by boat. Those who are interested in visiting should remember to apply for a restricted area permit in advance before entering. The Chung Ying Street checkpoint building was also recently opened, replacing manual inspections. Local residents told us that those who are able to enter Hong Kong from Shenzhen through the Chung Ying Street Checkpoint Building are all Hong Kong people.

During my recent trip to Sha Tau Kok Pier, I had the incredible opportunity to experience the mesmerizing art installation "Interwoven Horizon" by the multi-disciplinary artist En Iwamura from Japan. This captivating creation beautifully intertwines the elements of the sea, mountains, geology, islands, sun, and moon, creating a harmonious fusion of art and nature. As the installation leisurely floats in the sea near the pier, it serves as a visual symphony against the backdrop of the breathtaking natural landscape. En Iwamura's work is a testament to his deep connection with nature, drawing inspiration from the surroundings to highlight the intricate details of the landscape and geological formations near Sha Tau Kok. The interplay of natural colors in his art adds a touch of magic to the already stunning scenery. Exploring "Interwoven Horizon" was a truly immersive experience that allowed me to appreciate the beauty of the environment in a new light, merging artistic expression with the wonders of nature. It was a journey that left me in awe of the intricate ties that bind the elements together in perfect harmony.

So glad to have the chance to visit Sha Tau Kok, a place which I have never been to😍The very impressive creative work, "The Auspicious Dance" caught my attention as soon as I entered Sha Tau Kok Square.
