Centuries whisper from the weathered walls of Sai Pin Wai. Here, in the heart of Yuen Long District, stands this walled village, a silent testament to generations of Tang clansmen and the families who followed. Sai Pin Wai wasn’t always the multi-clan haven it is today. Originally established by the Tang Clan of Kam Tin in the 17th century, they eventually deemed the feng shui unfavorable. They abandoned Sai Pin Wai, along with nearby Nam Pin Wai, for the more auspicious Ying Lung Wai. But the story of Sai Pin Wai didn’t end there. New families, bearing names like Ng, Lau, Fan, and Lam, breathed life back into the village. The Lams, arriving in 1626 from Xixiang in Baoan, Guangdong Province, became part of this evolving tapestry. Imagine Sai Pin Wai growing and changing, row upon row of houses facing westward, five in all. Each house held stories of families, traditions, and the resilience of a community. Sai Pin Wai remains a living testament to Hong Kong’s rich history, a place where the echoes of the past mingle with the present.
