Sai Kung Village is about an hour and a half (max) out of Central Hong Kong. A MTR and light bus ride but it is a lifetime away from the crunching traffic, neon lights and "copy watch Mr" pressure of Hong Kong. Great seafood at reasonable (for HK) prices, good atomsphere and something for everyone to do. Allow a day... More

Also, from sai kung pier u can take kaido to several amazing beach. A bus ride away will bring u to maritime park where u can hv... More

this is more of a cultural experience than a culinary one. The food is below the average band according to my standards, it will be overpriced if not accompanied by a cantonese speaking guide. It's far, it's generally overrated. More

If you can spare the time during a stay in Hong Kong, consider a day in Sai Kung, it’s an authentic little fishing town (too big to call it a village) in the North East of the New Territories.
