Day 6

hong kong, china

Arrival: 07:00 - Departure: 22:00

According to a report by the Hong Kong Archaeological Society, people were already settled in Tsuen Wan as far back as two thousand years ago. In earlier times it was known as Tsin Wan (淺灣), meaning “shallow bay”, and was later renamed Tsuen Wan. Another name, Tsak Wan (賊灣, Hakka pronunciation: tshet wan), meaning “pirate bay”, points to the presence of pirates in the area long ago. In fact, the area around Rambler Channel was known as Sam Pak Tsin (三百錢), literally “three hundred coins”. Local legend says that pirates would demand three hundred coins from anyone passing through. By 1911, around 3,000 villagers were living in Tsuen Wan. In the 20th century, factories gradually moved in because of its closeness to Kowloon. After Castle Peak Road was built in 1917, motor vehicles could reach the town, which previously was accessible only on foot and by boat. Regular bus services did not start until 1933. Early industries made use of the plentiful local water supply to produce incense sticks, preserved fruit and farm products, while post-war industries included metalware and textiles.

Day 9

jeju island, south korea

Arrival: 07:00 - Departure: 20:00

Jeju Island is the largest island in South Korea, located in Jeju Province (Jeju Special Self-Governing Province). The island covers an area of 1,833.2 km² (707.8 sq mi), accounting for about 1.83% of South Korea’s total land area. In 2020, it had a registered population of around 670,000, the highest of any island in the country. The island sits in the Korea Strait, just south of the Korean Peninsula and the South Jeolla Province. Jeju is South Korea’s only self-governing province, meaning it’s administered by local residents rather than politicians from the mainland. Kimnyeong Beach marks the northern tip of Jeju Island, Songak Mountain its southern end, Suwolbong the western edge and Seongsan Ilchulbong the eastern point. Lying between the Yellow Sea, the East China Sea and the Sea of Japan, Jeju occupies an important economic, political and military position for South Korea. The island was formed by the eruption of an underwater volcano roughly 2 million years ago. It’s home to a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Jeju Volcanic Island and Lava Tubes. Jeju has a temperate, relatively mild climate; even in winter, temperatures rarely drop below 0 °C (32 °F). It is a hugely popular holiday destination, and a significant share of the local economy depends on tourism and activity linked to its civil and naval base.
