Mother Nature Rocks (2nd Tour, 2020-21)

Due to the pandemic, the beautiful landscape of Hong Kong has been revealed through forced domestic consumption. Going on the local excursions with us, you will be amazed by the stunning nature of our home.

The Mother Nature Rocks rolled out by this Centre aims at encouraging students to explore the city’s countryside and to experience the nature afresh.  The first activity under the programme of this academic year was successfully held on the 21st of this month.  Participants were led to walk along the ancient trails, check out peculiar rocks and hail the giant vines at Ma On Shan Country Park.  Despite the gathering restrictions, everyone exercised a great deal of self-discipline and had fond memories of this outing.  In the 2ndtour, we will bring you to go on a hike at Sai Kung, purported as the “Back Garden of Hong Kong”, and watch the sunset at Tai Cham Koi.  Details are as follows:
