Yung Shue Ha

Yung Shue Ha

Yung Shue Ha (Chinese: 榕樹下; lit. under the banyan tree) is a distant village on the south side of Lamma Island, Hong Kong. It is across the bay (Tung O Wan) from the village of Tung O. Both villages are sparsely populated and many places are abandoned.

It can be reached by ferry from Sok Kwu Wan or by walking trail. At the north end of Sok Kwu Wan by the Tin Hau Temple is a very steep walking trail that leads to Yung Shue Ha via Tung O.

The most famous former resident of Yung Shue Ha and Tung O is Chow Yun Fat.
