Hello! Happy to see you guys again. I am Taro. Do you guys remember I talked about Causeway Bay last week? Today I will talk about another popular place in Hong Kong. Can you guys guess which place I will talk about? It is Tuen Mun! Tuen Mun is a town near the mouth of Tuen Mun River and Castle Peak Bay in the New Territories, Hong Kong. It was one of the earliest settlements in Hong Kong which can be dated back to the Neolithic period. In the more recent past, it was home to many Tanka fishermen who gathered at the Castle Peak Bay. And now, Tuen Mun has become a modern mainly-residential area in north-west New Territories.
