Ping Shan Village Attractions

The ancient little village of Ping Shan near Tsui Shing Lau, (New Territories), has a 500-year-old pagoda built by the Tang clan. It is surrounded by farms, including many duck farms. They are the last remnants of an agricultural structure which has changed greatly in recent years, with a move away from small family holdings towards large agricultural concerns. However it is uncertain whether even the latter will remain in business much longer, since nowadays some 90% of all Hong Kong's food is imported from China. It is likely that, in a few years, more satellite towns like Sha Ti, for example, will be created to meet the housing needs of Hong Kong's constantly increasing population.
