Journey to the southwestern edge of Lantau Island. Discover the wonders of Fan Lau. Fan Lau means “separating water flow”. It aptly describes the peninsula. Fan Lau divides the currents of the Pearl River from the South China Sea. This creates a dynamic clash of waters. Fan Lau is more than just a geographical wonder. It holds layers of history. It boasts an ancient stone circle, the ruins of Fan Lau Fort, a Tin Hau Temple, and deserted villages. The views of Lantau South Country Park are breathtaking. Fan Lau Fort, built in 1729, stands as a sentinel. It silently watches over the East Bay. It was once a vital defense against pirates. It protected the mouth of the Pearl River. Today, only ruins remain. They whisper tales of a bygone era. The stone circle, possibly dating back to the Neolithic and Bronze Ages, adds an element of mystery. Its purpose remains unknown. Speculation suggests it may have been a site for ancient rituals. A Tin Hau Temple graces Fan Lau Miu Wan. It honors the sea goddess Tin Hau. It likely dates back to 1820. It offers a glimpse into the spiritual beliefs of those who depended on the sea. Fan Lau is a place of stark beauty. It’s a testament to the power of nature and the passage of time.
