Details

Cha Kwo Ling Village is an old village coexisting with the city. The village was once famous for its granite production, and it was home to 20,000 people in its heyday. Yet, the bustling street in the olden day is not prosperous any longer.

We are honored to cooperate with The Conservancy Association Centre for Heritage (CACHe) in this activity. The tour guide will lead us to the Cha Kwo Ling Village. You may listen to the story about this shantytown that is facing its disappearance, feel the uniqueness of this village, and be reflective on the importance of conservation in our community.
