A car-free island: Cheung Po Tsai Cave, bun festival, Tung Wan beach. During the festival it becomes another city.
Analysis
Cheung Chau compresses village, temple and bun-scale onto a walkable island. Bun Festival is the extreme day; the rest is a slow island.
Best time
Weekdays; the bun festival in the fourth lunar month needs its own plan.
How to go
Central Pier 5.
Transit
Fast ferry from Central Pier 5. No cars; bikes rent easily.
Season window
The weeks before Bun Festival already fill. Summer East Bay is a swim crowd.
Tips
- · Bikes loop the island; Tung Wan is dense at weekends.
