Comparison between two parts~3.Tourism


In the northern part, there are only have Sin Kung Tung, Pak Tai Temple and Tin Hau temple. But in the southern part, there are many tourist places for us to visit. For examples, there are Cheung Po Tsai Cave, Nam Tam Wan, Tin Hau temples, Hung Shing temples etc.
Cheung Po Tsai Cave is a well-known place in Cheung Chau, many people pass though the cave for adventure. This provides job opportunities for local residents. They can be tourist guide or ferry service providers. In Nam Tam Wan, we can see a wide range of rocks, many geologist and teachers bring students go there learning and observing the rocks. Tin Hau temple which is build at over one hundred years ago. Many believer worship those “GOD” and visit the oldest copper clock.
All these tourist attractions attract many people to visit the southern part of Cheung Chau. In this case, it will lead to increase desire of the local residents to run a small business and make a profit from the tourists. Some of the local residents want to do their business more conveniently , they will choose living in the southern part rather than northern part of Cheung Chau. That is why the southern part of Cheung Chau has more settlement than the northern part of Cheung Chau.
