Escape the Hustle and Bustle in Hong Kong 🇭🇰

#timetotravel Located only 8 kilometres from the west of Hong Kong Island, Peng Chau is easily accessible and only a ferry ride away from the Central Ferry Pier Number 6, which makes it a perfect day trip destination!! Peng Chau is home to only 6,000 inhabitants, therefore, as compared with other more popular islands on Hong Kong, for example, Cheung Chau and Mui Wo, Peng Chau offers a relaxing retreat for visitors. Since I am from Hong Kong, I did not go all tourist mode when visiting Peng Chau. I skipped all the temples and beaches, and spent my day visiting cafes, the leather factory and the outdoor art installations in the junkyard on Wing On Street. Up until the Japanese Occupation, Peng Chau used had a booming leather business. Thankfully, the factory site was not demolished. At the front of the factory site, you can find loads of coffee shops and other retail outlets; and at the back, there is a massive outdoor junkyard installation. It is definitely worthwhile paying a visit. If you are planning a visit to Peng Chau after this post, I would also recommend visiting “Island Table Grocer Café”, their apple pies are one of the best I have had!! #hk #hongkong #island #daytrip
