Before the final descend of 200m down along stairways, everyone must stop to enjoy and appreciate the spectacular Kau Nga Leng and Lantau Peak.

A view of an interesting stone trail section at South Lantau Country Trail.

If one is alert and observing, there are plenty of wildlife and plants to see, and to take photos of.

One of the many splendid beaches of Hong Kong, the long Cheung Sha Beach at south Lantau Island.

A little exploration diversion on one of the small stream.

This was one of the many small streams and falls along the easy South Lantau Country Trail.

Heading down, one could see one of the traditional and prosperous village, Pui O Village, located at a delta region. Behind it was the rock-climbing enthusiasts rendevous, the twin peaks of Lo Yan Hill.

It was so foggy at the hill top that finding the right way would be difficult to the inexperienced.

One of the fine view of Tung Chung new city and Chek Lap Kok airport while hiking up Wong Lung Hang Country Trail. If the weather was better, the view would be more spectacular.

It was cold, windy, misty and overcast on 13/03/2005, for reasons of safety, I hiked on two established Country Trails in Lantau Island. This famous Tin Hau Temple was made completely of stones and granites(including Tin Hau goddess herself) and was originally located at Chek Lap Kok. Because of the contruction of our new airport, the Temple was removed and relocated stone by stone to its new site near Chek Lap Kok Village at Tung Chung.

The view was so beautiful that I didn't really want to let myself go.

The golden rays from the setting sun showered the already magnificient landscape with glistening sparkles.

This time I chose the steep path down to Dai Kong Po Village.

Back to Kai Kung Leng's summit, the metropolitan Shenzhen city contrasts startlingly with the suburban villages at New Territories.

Looking east, the splendid Dai Dou Yun ridge cutting across the view, and at the two far ends, the two magnificent hills Pak Sin Leng and Ma On Shan could be seen.

After a brief visit to the village, I headed back up Kai Kung Leng via another path from Ying Pun.

A chinese signpost warning visitors of the unsettling peacefullness of the village.

An ancient Tin Hau Temple at the far end of Chiu Keng Village, and there is an obscurely small path behind it leading up to the gap.

A view of Chiu Keng Village.

One can go down from the northern slope of Kwai Kok Hill down to the gap between Dai Lo Tin Hill, and Chiu Keng Village.

Kai Kung Leng consists of two hills, the smaller Kai Kung Hill and Kwai Kok Hill.

On 06/03/2005 I went up Kai Kung Leng at Lam Chuen Country Park. The view, as could be seen was superb.

East Dam of Plover Cove Reservoir. The remaining 4km trail was easy tarmac road walk to reach Tai Mei Tuk again.

Another look at Lo Fu Wat bay.

At the summit of Cheung Pai Tun.
