前言 Introduction:
今天又是炎熱的一天!!! 在前往長洲的渡輪上, 有一副棺木!!! 原來有長洲居民在島外去世 (應該是醫院吧?), 所以他的家人便把他運回長洲下葬. 在船上看到棺材及溪錢, 都是第一次! 長洲有火葬場及墳場, 死者可在島上下葬.
Really a hot hot hot Saturday again!!! On the ferry to Cheung Chau this morning, we could see a coffin and paper money for the dead, really the first time to see these on a ferry!! A local resident of this island died in the urban area (a hospital, I think), so his family brought his body back home. (There are cementary and crematorium in Cheung Chau)
由長洲渡輪碼頭出發, 經海鮮檔及長洲市政大廈 (即大興堤路), 沿海前進, 再進入長洲西堤路.
Started from the ferry pier, we walked along the seaside road (Tai Hing Tai Road), via the seafood stalls and Cheung Chau Municipal building (Cheung Chau Market). And then we kept on walking along the seaside path and now we had reached Cheung Chau Sai Tai Road.
沿長洲西堤路一直前走, 有很多龍船!!! 忍不住跟可愛的龍頭來個合照!!! 再前走, 直至路的盡頭, 會看見村落及一個小小的銜渡碼頭, 那裡便是上山去張保仔洞的地方.
We kept on walking along Cheung Chau Sai Tai Road, and then we saw a dragon boat!! See how lovely the dragon is!! Then keep on walking along the seaside and till the end of the road, we could see a village and a little ferry pier there, it is the place for going uphill for Cheung Po Tsai Cave, a very famous spot of Cheung Chau!!
經張保仔路上山, 步向張保仔洞郊遊區, 那裡有洗手間及休憩場所, 設備齊全. 張保仔是誰? 他是有名的海盜, 昔日把劫來的寶物藏於長洲的山洞內, 即張保仔洞. 不過, 別妄想可在洞內尋寶, 寶物早給挖光了!!!
Uphill via Cheung Po Tsai Road for Cheung Po Tsai Cave Picnic Area. There are washrooms and seats at the hillside. But who is Cheung Po Tsai? He was a notorius pirate who liked to hide his robbed goods in the caves of Cheung Chau. Cheung Po Tsai Cave is one of them!! Don't try to dig out any jewellery from the cave now, they are all removed in the past!! :D
張保仔洞附近全是懸崖, 雖然風景不錯, 但小心掉下海中!! 這邊 (左邊)沒有扶手比較危險, 要進入張保仔洞觀看, 請沿裝有扶手的那一邊 (右邊) 前往.
Now we were standing on some cliffs!!! Yes, beautiful scenes here but really dangerous at this side (left-hand side), may fall into the sea if you slip here! There are NO hand-drails at the left-hand side, so if you want to go into the cave, please turn to the right-hand side (with hand-drails), it is safe to walk along that side.
沿右邊前進, 看到張保仔洞的入口了. 洞穴入口就在這堆岩石下, 又窄又黑, 請帶備電筒及勞工手套.
We walked along the path with hand-drails and then now we were in front of the entrance of the cave! The cave is just beneath some big rocks, very narrow and dark. Please bring a torch and rock climbers' gloves before you go inside!!
試入張保仔洞!! 真的很窄!! (張保仔應該很瘦吧!!!) 洞外的路很滑, 差點滑下去!!! 大家都沒有電筒及勞工手套, 很容易絆倒或給石頭劃傷, 所以都是離開了.
Trying hard to squeeze into the cave (Cheung Po Tsai should be very skinny)!! The path to the cave is really narrow and slippery, we nearly fell into the cave!! It is really easy to get injured to walk inside the cave without any torches and gloves (sharp rocks everywhere inside!!), so we finally came out and left....
離開張保仔洞, 到附近的鯆魚灣.
Left Cheung Po Tsai Cave and moved to Po Yue Bay (Po Yue Wan).
穿過岩石迷宮, 下去鯆魚灣.
We walked downstairs and went through a rock "labyrinth" for the seaside of Po Yue Bay.
陽光普照下的鯆魚灣, 美得難以形容.
Po Yue Bay is so beautiful under the sunshine!!
在海邊玩, 險些滑落水中.
Playing @ the seaside.... nearly slipped into the water....
詭異樓梯.... 為何樓梯的起點會在一大塊高高的岩石上?????? 叫人怎樣走上去呢???
Weird staircases.... why they are constructed on a big piece of rock which is very high and steep? How can people go up?????
下山走到山頂道西... 實在極道炎熱, 大家快要溶解, 即去士多買些冰凍零食以作救命之用. 有冰棒, 冰凍菠蘿及汽水!!
We walked downslope for Peak Road West.... It was really very hot this afternoon, we were melting..... Then we all rushed to some stores nearby and got something for "life-saving"~~ Ice-bars, ice-sticks, soft drinks.... and the COOOLEST of all... "Chilled pineapple", HK$4 for one piece, which was a "heatwave-extinguisher"!!
經過山頂道西的美經援村, 此地由美國經濟援助協會及加拿大的協助下建成.
We passed Peak Road West and had a look @ Self Help Care Village. This place was built with the help of Care International from USA and Canada government.
下山去白鰽灣, 看看五行石.
Now we walked downhill for Pak Tso Bay (Pak Tso Wan) and another scenic spot, Reclining Rock.
白鰽灣的海邊~ 海景甚美, 是今天所見的海灘中最美的. 但今天浪很大, 濺得大家的鞋子都濕了.
Now @ Pak Tso Bay (Pak Tso Wan)~ It is the most beautiful beach in Cheung Chau!!! But the waves were so strong, our shoes all got wet. The BEST of all is, Pak Tso Bay is really very far away from the pier, usually the beach is empty. We enjoyed our own "Sunshine and Beach resort", with no other visitors around!!!
經過長洲氣象站.
Now we were outside the Cheung Chau Meteorological station.
接入山頂道, 附近是錦江小學, 向南氹灣方向前進.
Now we moved to Peak Road, Kam Kong Primary School is just nearby. We now kept on moving to the direction for Nam Tam Wan (Morning Bay).
沿山頂道一直前走, 會看見建道神學院, 神學院旁便是下山去南氹灣的南氹灣道.
Keep on walking along Peak Road until you can see "Alliance Bible Seminary". The road next to the church building is for Nam Tam Wan (Morning Bay) ~ Nam Tam Wan Road.
(The road in between number 12 and 17 on the map)
南氹灣天后廟及海邊的觀音像.
Tin Hau Temple of Nam Tam Wan (Morning Bay), together with a statue of Aryavalokitesvara Bodhisattva at the seaside.
海邊的南氹公園
Nam Tam Park @ the seaside...
南氹灣沒有想像中美麗, 有點失望....
Nam Tam Wan (Morning Bay) is not as beautiful as I expect.....
去關公亭一探....
Now moved to Kwan Tai Pavilion.
離開山頂道, 轉入學校路再下山去碼頭. 已是黃昏, 也應該回中環了.
We ended our walk here, now we left Peak Road and switched to School Road for a ferry to Central. Already evening time, dinner is waiting for us...!!
由中環到尖沙咀海港城的 Food Court, 素食晚餐正式開始!!! 今晚是印度素食!! 看我的香草素菜炒飯套餐~!! 薯條好香, 雜豆醬也非常好味!!
@ the food court of Harbour City in TST now~! Our veggie gathering began from here!! See my Biryani veg. fried rice combo~! I love the colour so much, the orange fries and bean sauce were also very delicious!! :D
