Day 19: Cheung Chau


We took an hour ferry ride to Cheung Chau, one of the outlying islands around Hong Kong Island.


Cars aren't allowed on the island because the streets are too narrow, so everyone cycles or walks instead. Such a change from Hong Kong Island, where cycling on the streets is only for the most experienced/bravest/stupidest of cyclists.








Stores and vendors everywhere were selling dried herbs and things to make traditional Chinese medicines or foods. These seahorses were bottled up, but most vendors had their herbs out in the open air.


There was a beach on the other side of the island!
