Tsuen Wan - Insiders' Favourites

Tsuen Wan has its origins in textiles and manufacturing, but the district today is a collection of diverse experiences. From hikes and beaches, to heritage restaurants and so much more.

Here are some of our top picks.

The original owner of the restaurant opened it to cater to factory workers, and its delicious, charcoal-roasted Guangdong birds are prepared following recipes that were passed down through three generations.

Seafood and other Cantonese dishes are available too.

Tai Mo Shan Country Park

Tai Mo Shan Country Park

Formerly an agricultural region that was famous for its green tea, Tai Mo Shan Country Park now attracts hiking enthusiasts thanks to the mountain after which it is named  — Tai Mo Shan — the tallest peak in Hong Kong, and comprised of pure volcanic rock. Popular hiking routes include a six-hour journey to Shing Mun Reservoir, which starts at the Tai Mo Shan Country Park Visitor Centre, or a two-hour trip to the weather radar station, which starts in Chuen Lung and takes you past lookouts and abandoned mines. There's also the leisurely Chuen Lung Family Walk, a wooded path surrounded by bamboo, for the more casual hiker.
