Aberdeen Floating Village

Lunch at the Tai Pak floating restaurant in Aberdeen, HK

Aberdeen Floating Village

During my shore leave in Hong Kong, I took the opportunity to do some sight seeing. One of the more interesting place was the fishing village of Aberdeen located in the Southern District of Hong Kong.  The tour included lunch at  one of several floating restaurants which serve fresh seafood caught directly from the boats.

Hong Kong is one of the most densely populated urban areas in the world and housing is at a premium. A large number of people would spend their entire life on a houseboat which we saw on our sampan ride to the restaurant.
