About Cheung Chau
A small island nearLantauthat used to be a pirates' den but now houses mostly windsurfers and sunbathing day trippers. It still has a traditional community based on an active fishing fleet and many thriving seafood restaurants, and also has a number of reasonable hiking trails and some usable beaches. In the past, the higher parts Cheung Chau were, like Victoria Peak, racially segregated and Chinese were prohibited from living there, and the southern shore of the island was a beach reserved for white people only. These rules relaxed after the Second World War, and now much of the land on the hilltops of the island are now occupied by monasteries.
