Lei Yue Mun Sam Ka Tsuen

Nestled at the eastern edge of Kowloon, Lei Yue Mun Sam Ka Tsuen offers a rare glimpse into Hong Kong’s maritime roots. Once a stone quarrying settlement, the village has transformed into a cultural enclave where the rhythm of the sea still shapes daily life. The narrow lanes are lined with seafood stalls, modest homes, and the occasional banyan tree that has stood for generations.

At the heart of the village stands the Tin Hau Temple, painted in auspicious red and believed to have been built by early seafarers to honor the Goddess of the Sea. The temple, now a Grade III historic building, remains a spiritual anchor for the community.

From the gentle bobbing of fishing boats in the harbor to the scent of salt in the air, every corner of Sam Ka Tsuen tells a story of resilience and tradition. Whether you're admiring the coastal rock formations or watching the sun dip behind Devil’s Peak, this village invites quiet reflection and appreciation of a slower, simpler way of life.
