ABERDEEN 1773 浪遊漁港

The sampan boat is full of the life of Hong Kong people in the old days, and it also represents the spirit of never giving up that Hong Kong people can withstand the test of wind and waves." Aberdeen fishing port is the root of Hong Kong and the origin of Hong Kongs name. It bears the long history of Hong Kong and also witnesses the local feelings of Hong Kong people. Since the 1940s, when Aberdeen was opened as a port, floating homes have become commonplace. At that time, the entire family of people living on the water would live on boats, commonly known as "houseboats". Typhoon shelters have gradually become unique and Self-sufficient small community on the water. However, with the implementation of the resettlement plan in the 1960s, people on the water began to migrate to live on land one after another. Fishermen changed jobs. Fisherman culture began to become history, and skills, experiences, and deeds were gradually lost. In view of this, in order to preserve this unique historical culture and re-conserve it, we specially designed the A1773 Wandering Fishing Port Sampan Tour, so that Hong Kong people and tourists can experience this unique experience and see the life of fishermen in the past. The beauty of old Hong Kong has reappeared before our eyes, and this once glorious history can be passed down forever.
