Shau Kei Wan 筲箕灣
A spatial walking guide to Shau Kei Wan, Hong Kong’s historical maritime gateway. Follow a route from old coastlines to A Kung Ngam’s shipyards, exploring 5 stories of Hakka stonecutters, WWII command posts, and the transition from maritime production to modern land development.
This is a historical travel story and spatial walking guide to Shau Kei Wan, the historical "strategic throat" of Hong Kong Island. Through five layered shoreline stories, it explores the Tin Hau and Tam Kung temples, the industrial edges of A Kung Ngam, and traditional wooden shipyards to reveal how Hakka stonecutters, wartime conflicts, and a vanishing blue economy shaped this resilient maritime community.
