This ghost town, located on a small island off the coast of Kowloon, still has a living side where approximately a dozen people still reside. There is a small path that leads you around the island to view the abandoned houses from a short distance, but if you go off the path you can easily sneak into many of these abandoned homes and stone huts to see what life was like here. Many of the houses still have old furniture in them. There is a school there that, while shut down due to a lack of students, is still being preserved.
Though you will see some others on this island near the entrance where a restaraunt still functions, if you do some exploring you can easily find some interesting abandoned locations hidden in the large jungle.
Overall, I spent about two hours here exploring and recording the first youtube video I ever made.
