Regarded as the 'Venice of Hong Kong', Tai O is a Chinese stilt-house community at the northwest cost of Lantau. The villagers here are called Tanka, who are fisher folks.
One of the tourists' favorites is the old-fashioned rope-drawn 'ferry' that travels the creek dividing the town. It has been operating for 85 years until a manually-operated drawbridge is built lately. Although the traditional way of travelling to the next town has been replaced, the 'pang uks' (stilt house) are still sufficient to keep the place a traditional haven.
You can also drop by Tai O's museum.
Nearby attractions in the island are the Ngong Ping 360 , Hong Kong Disneyland and Big Buddha .
