Hiking to Peng Chau on 18 Nov, 2023 (Sat)

坪洲好去處:一日遊路線、必去景點介紹,與你探索坪洲藝術新活力| 香港旅遊發展局

 

In order to increase and promote understanding, communication and interaction among members, the Institute is organizing a relaxing hiking in November and welcomes all members, friends and family members to join.

The island of Peng Chau, or ‘flat island’ — covering less than 1 sq km — offers a relaxing retreat with easy trails and a taste of real village life without the bustle of holidaymakers, yet it’s less than an hour’s ferry ride from the central business district on Hong Kong Island.

According to historical records, business activities on Peng Chau were thriving halfway through the Qing dynasty (1644–1911), and in some areas, time seems to have stood still for decades. Despite its small size, the charming island is dotted with Instagram and photography spots — from remains of an old factory, beaches and temples, to street arts which add vibrancy to this tranquil community.

Quota: 20 persons (first come first served basis), the Institute will sponsor HK$50 for HKIVM member.

Organizers : Hong Kong Institute of Value Management (HKIVM)

Gathering Time: 09:45am (Take Ferry at 10:00am to Peng Chau)
Meeting Point:  Central Ferry Pier No.6 (中環碼頭6號)
