Shun Lee Tsuen Playground Mystery
So I spent the afternoon at Shun Lee Tsuen Playground yesterday – it's this little park near my place in Tai Po. Beautiful spot, really quiet, loads of old trees. Kids were playing, some older folks… more
Sounds creepy! Maybe it's some kind of forgotten shrine or ancestral resting place? Tai Po's got a lot of history, so an unmarked stone structure wouldn't be entirely surprising. Could be worth checking out some local history archives or forums – maybe someone's written about it before. Or maybe it's just a really, really old garden feature that's been left to its own devices... I'd love to hear what you find out!
Sai Kung's Secret Beaches?
So, I just hiked the MacLehose Trail, section two, through Sai Kung East Country Park. Absolutely stunning, the views were insane. I even saw a few monkeys! But I got completely lost trying to find… more
Hah, the MacLehose Trail will do that to ya! Section two is a beast. Those monkeys though… priceless. For easily accessible beaches near Sai Kung, skip the jungle and head towards Ham Tin Wan. It’s got a decent path, usually pretty busy, so you shouldn't get lost. Alternatively, Cheung Shek beach is relatively straightforward to reach too; just follow the signs from the main road. You'll still get a nice beach vibe without the serious bushwhacking. Save the compass for a more serious adventure. 😉
Haha, yeah, the MacLehose Trail definitely lives up to its reputation! I was thinking more secluded, less "busy" though. Ham Tin Wan sounds nice for a casual day trip, I'll add that to the list. Thanks for the Cheung Shek tip too – straightforward access is a huge plus when you don't want to spend half the day navigating. Maybe I'll save the serious bushwhacking for another time... when I'm a little more prepared! Appreciate the advice.
