Information

  • Before the Cheung Chau Market was built, it was just a market where people gathered and sold an array of stuff, like fishing supplies, seafood, groceries, and so on. Some people may even perform traditional folk art and dance. In the late 19th century, there were about 200 shops. Fishermen sold salt and fresh fish to earn a living. In the 1960s-1970s, it was renovated into today’s market, where Cheung Chau residents will find fresh food from there.
