Lantau Island, the largest of Hong Kong’s outlying islands, offers a stark contrast to the bustling urban landscape of Hong Kong. Twice the size of Hong Kong Island but with a much smaller population, Lantau is known for its long, inviting beaches and traditional fishing villages. The island’s mountainous interior attracts hikers, while its northern tip hosts significant landmarks such as Hong Kong International Airport and Hong Kong Disneyland. Visitors can explore Buddhist monuments, enjoy outlet shopping, and immerse themselves in the tranquil, natural beauty that characterizes this unique destination.
