🇭🇰Hong Kong｜The White Lighthouse at the End of the Earth

If there is a place in Hong Kong that has the most sense of the end of the world, it must be Hok Tsui! In addition to taking photos at the rare white lighthouse in Hong Kong, you can also stand on the rocks to listen to the waves and take photos. Looking out, you can see the blue ocean. How free and easy!

⭐️Ya Cai Hang Village

After about half an hour's walk, you will reach Hezui Ya Choi Hang Village. The independent mailbox, which is rare in the city, is a popular check-in spot.

There is a convenience store in Hok Tsui Village where we can get supplies. The online information shows that it is only open on holidays, but when we went in that day, someone still came to ask us what we wanted. There is also a Hong Kong Hok Tsui Village School in the village. It was built in 1967 and is now abandoned, but it is well preserved and I believe the villagers are maintaining it.

⭐️PCCW Hok Tsui High Frequency Radio Transmitter Station

Afterwards we came to PCCW’s high frequency radio transmitter station. Please note that you cannot pass directly on the road but have to go around the grass next to it. However, there is a flat area here, from which you can see the Hezui Garbage Bay, and the sea water is very blue and clear.

⭐️Hok Tsui Lighthouse

After passing the transmitter station, you will see a fork in the road with clear signs. Going up will lead you to the lighthouse. Cape Tsui Lighthouse is the oldest existing lighthouse in Hong Kong and was built as early as 1875. However, just 18 years later, a new lighthouse was built on Waglan Island and the Cape Tsui Lighthouse was decommissioned in 1896. A century later, the Cape Tsui Lighthouse was automated and put back into operation. So don’t underestimate this small building, it has been through many ups and downs with Hong Kong!

⭐️Leiyin Cave, Crab Cave

The entrance to Leiyin Cave can be seen on Hezui Road and is very easy to find. The entrance of Leiyin Cave is much smaller than that of the Crab Cave, so the echo inside is louder. Every time the waves hit the cave, there is a loud noise, which is very shocking.

The Crab Cave is located in the coastal protection area, but there are a lot of people here. In addition, some people came to take wedding photos that day, so there was a long queue. And more people are queuing!

📍Hok Tsui
To go to Hok Tsui, you actually take bus number 9 just like to go to Shek O. The terminus is just outside the Shau Kei Wan MTR station. Get off at "Hok Tsui Road" and walk for an hour and a half to reach Hok Tsui.
