Pui O

[2] Pui O is a bay shaped by the Chi Ma Wan Peninsula and the lower slopes of Sunset Peak.

At the shore, a long beach (or spit) is formed by the interaction between the current of the South China Sea and the rivers.

Due to the geological composition of surrounding area, the sand on the beach is mixture of black and yellow.

Lo Pui O is one of five villages of Lantau that were resettled when the coastal restriction of the Great Clearance was lifted in 1669.

[6] It is surrounded by two feng shui trees, and an earth god shrine is located at its right side.

All bus routes between Mui Wo and other points pass through Pui O, with the New Lantao Bus running their route numbers 1, 2, 3M, 4 stopping at the Pui O Petrol Station, San Wai Tsuen and Lo Uk Tsuen.
