Tai O

Located in the western part of Lantau Island and facing Lingdingyang, the tranquil Tai O is the oldest fishing village in Hong Kong and one of the most popular tourist attractions on Lantau Island. Due to the unique topographic features of Tai O and the surrounding wetlands, local residents dwell in stilt houses built by the shore, therefore Tai O is hailed as “Venice of the Orient”. The Dragon Boat Water Parade is held in Tai O every year during the Dragon Boat Festival. The Parade was inscribed onto the third national list of Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2011.
