The day was spent on the Kowloon Peninsula & New Territories areas of Hong Kong SAR. After a Chinese-style (well, more so than American anyway) breakfast at a local chain, we jumped on the MTR & made our way to the Tsuen Wan Station. Nearby we found the Sam Tung Uk Museum & learned about past culture & life in Hong Kong. We then walked to the town's KCR West Rail station which led us to our next destination near the Tin Shui Wai Station, exploring the Ping Shan Heritage Trail's interesting pagoda, shrines, temples & ornate town halls. Arriving for a late lunchtime at the Fung Ying Sing Koon Monastery, we enjoyed a delicious vegetarian meal in its dining hall before really checking out the grounds & gardens. The day was capped off with visits to the Museum of Art & adjacent Space Museum (they were included in our week-long museum passes so we decided to just quickly explore each).
