| Abstract | Lantau, the largest island - at 142 square kilometres - is home to only a few thousand people who inhabit coastal communities surrounded by majestic country parkland. Only an hour by air-conditioned ferry services from downtown - or 35 minutes by hovercraft - the mountainous island of Lantau is a haven for hikers, explorers and country-lovers. Within minutes of boarding a bus or taxi at the ferry terminals, visitors enter a scenic and historical land of densely-wooded valves, grassy mountain peaks, pristine beaches, hillside temples, the world largest outdoor bronze status, Tanka fisherfolk, and the Hong Kong new airport. |
