Always hear about Wong Tai Sin Temple, thus decided to visit there. When we reached there, darn crowded place with tourists...

Location 2: 鲤鱼门(Lei Yue Mun)

This is an interesting suburban area that gives you the fresh air to breathe - less traffic. I love this particular place - just like the fishing village and I can see lots of seafood shops and interesting old building.

Was there during a very hot sunny day - this was the day I got severe sunbath :-)

Along the exploration inside the village - you can see lots of seafood shops...
We reached there for about noon time - those shop owners just opened up the shop and busy with the kick-start day to setup.

After temple visit - on the way back via back lane - we bought Chinese cookies (not too sure whether this is the correct name or not :-) ) from traditional Chinese pastry shop.

Day 5 - Hong Kong Airport

Had a quiet breakfast at local restaurant - the delicious porridge without my gear. After breakfast - we headed to airport earlier. The airport is darn huge, arrived there on time.
