Sam A

Sam A (traditional Chinese: 三椏村; simplified Chinese: 三桠村; Jyutping: saam1 aa1 cyun1; pinyin: Sānyā Cūn) is a village in the northeastern New Territories of Hong Kong, named after the bay of Sam A Wan (三椏灣; 三桠湾).

Sam A is a recognized village under the New Territories Small House Policy.

Sam A is one of the seven Hakka villages of the Hing Chun Yeuk (慶春約; 'Hing Chun Alliance'), which comprises Kop Tong, Lai Chi Wo, Mui Tsz Lam, Ngau Shi Wu, Sam A, Siu Tan (小灘), and So Lo Pun.

[3] Today, the Tsang ancestral hall and the abandoned three-village school still stand, but there is little life here on a week-day.

On week-ends, however, some Tsang clan members return to their ancestral village to run a couple of stores that offer food and lodgings for the ever increasing number of visitors.
