Brief Introduction
Wild, rugged and romantically remote, the northern New Territories is a part of Hong Kong where the pristine landscape and rural settlements have remained untouched by modernity.
The countryside takes your breath away with its celestial beauty and natural grandeur. Everywhere you look, you are delighted by sublime scenery, precious wildlife and cultural heritage: the lordly Pat Sin Leng, the dreamy Plover Cove Reservoir, the idyllic Double Haven, and the archaic hamlets scattered across the land. Every part of it is worth exploring and savouring, Discovering New Territories North presents famous attractions
and the rural folk culture of this region. Taking you on a journey through captivating scenery and rich heritage, it introduces you to the joy of countryside exploration.
