Cheung Chau Bun Festival
The Cheung Chau Bun Festival will be held on 11-15 May in Cheung Chau (meaning “the long island”). Every year, this event attracts thousands of Hong Kong people and tourists to crowd the ferries to the island. Starting from late Qing Dynasty (1644 -1911), the islanders built an altar in front of the Pak Tai Temple and petitioned the god Pak Tai to drive off the evil spirits besieging the island, while parading statues of deities through the narrow lanes of their village. The custom continues until today and during the week-long event, there will be Taoist ceremonies and music, a parade, lion dances and drum beating. The highlight is the Bun Scrambling Competition in the night of May 14. Know more about the festival here. |
