First stop was the world's longest suspension bridge, Tsing Ma Bridge. It is named Tsing Ma because it connects the islands of Tsing Yi and Ma Wan. From there we took a bus ride past the new airport, Chek Lap Kok, which is scheduled to open on July 6th, 1998. From there we continued on to Sha Tin. Saw Tsang Tai Uk city, which is a walled city that is 150 years old.
People still live here.
Amazing how a village this old is surrounded by skyscrapers, yet still survives. From there our next stop was Wong Tai Sin Temple. This is Hong Kong's busiest Taoist temple, visited by more than 3 million worshippers annually. There were hundreds of people worshipping here, many using numbered sticks to tell them a fortune. The person shakes a cup with 100 sticks in it, when one falls out, they write the number down.
