    Where to stay

    Neighborhood guide

    Tsuen Wan is a district in the southwestern New Territories of Hong Kong rather than a separate city, at the northern end of the harbour. It was one of the first new towns developed outside Kowloon and is dense and largely residential.

    What to see

    Timed to the light

    The Sam Tung Uk walled village museum preserves a Hakka settlement within the modern town and is a genuine survival. The cable car to the Tian Tan Buddha on Lantau leaves from nearby Tung Chung, and the hiking trails of Tai Mo Shan, Hong Kong's highest peak, start above the district.
