Hong Kong Tai Ping Qing Jiao Festival | Come to McDull’s hometown 🐽 and experience the most interesting festival in Hong Kong

Speaking of Cheung Chau Island, everyone will think of the cute image of McDull🐽. This gentle and friendly island 🏝️ is the hometown of the cartoon character McDull. But you may not know that the annual bun grabbing event on Cheung Chau Island is also very interesting and popular. In this custom, the more peace bags you grab, the greater your blessings🧧, and the more luck and success you will have in the whole year💫. 🥁As the gong was struck, the highlight of the Cheung Chau Jiao Festival in Hong Kong, “Bun Grabbing”, officially began🧗🏻. The contestants sprinted up the 14-meter-high bag mountain and used all their skills within the 3-minute time limit to quickly grab the bag with their left and right hands🏅. There was a lot of cheering and shouting at the scene, it was very interesting. This festival was also selected by Time magazine as one of the “Top Ten Weird Festivals in the World”. The peace bun is about the size of a palm and is made of flour, white sugar and water. The word "peace" is printed on the front of the bun with red oil. There are many flavors such as sesame paste, lotus paste, and red bean paste🫘, which means peace and health. Many tourists buy it as a souvenir to take home🛍️. Friends who plan to come to Hong Kong in May, don’t miss this fun festival full of Hong Kong traditional style💕. 🕑Time: 📆Climbing Carnival: 9:00 am to 6:00 pm on May 5 📆Bun Grabbing Finals and Award Ceremony: 11:30pm on May 15 to 12:45am on May 16 💰Activity Fees: Free admission 🚢Transportation: Walk from Central/Hong Kong MTR station to the pier and take a ferry from Pier 5 in Central (see the last picture for the ferry schedule).
