TAI PO

This old house looks like having the old Bauhaus-style architecture.

Informative panels on environmental topics are displayed in the Island House's Exhibition Room.

Island House was built in 1905. It stood on a small islet called Yuen Chau Tsai near the head of Tolo Harbour. It is a classic example of the colonial architecture. It was erected as quarters for government officers and was associated with the New Territories Administration.

Man Mo Temple honours the gods of Man (Civil God of Literacy) and Mo (Martial God). It also acts as a local gathering point for the area's elderly.

The temple was built in 1891 by the Tsat Yeuk Community of Tai Po to mark the founding of Tai Wo Market.

Numerous large incense coils with red prayer plaques hang from the ceiling.

Clouds of smoke billow from huge incense burners in the Man Mo temple courtyard.

The Man Mo Temple in Tai Po was declared in 1983 as a monument under the Antiquities and Monuments Ordinance.

Huge incense coils are suspended from the temple's ceiling and are burning for more than 2 weeks.

The front courtyard is planted with palms and provides shade for those taking a rest on the benches.

The station at Tai Po Market was built in the Chinese style in 1913. Declared a monument in 1984, the station now houses the Hong Kong Railway Museum.
