"My Hong Kong Wetland Park Page" Tin Shui Wai by bpacker

Tin Shui Wai Travel Guide: 8 reviews and 11 photos

1000 butterflies for the 10th Anniversary of HKSAR

Somewhere in the backyard of Hong Kong, lies the verdent green landscape of the New Territories. There's a Wetland Park in the Tin Shui Wai region, a state-of the art themepark that comes complete with 2 storey bird hides and swaroski scopes. Needless to say, I've been spending a lot of time here since I'm into birds and nature photography.
Though my photos are lightyears away from professional standards, you can still get a rough idea what to expect here. Do take a look.

Pros and Cons

Pros:Birds! Butterflies! Dragonflies! Need I say more?
Cons:It's quite a stretch travelling here
In a nutshell:A Nature Photographer's Haven

A nice corner of HKG I'd never heard of. Nice job. Birthday greetings from Alaska! Keep on running.

Great information, Glenda! Btw, there is a coloured guidebook selling in Hong Kong which shows all the good places for trekking e.g. Lantau Island. You should get a copy :)

Guys, I apologise, sometimes my creativity gets the better of me. Butterflies do not chew their own wings nor fly into firing ranges!

Do butterflies really succumb to nervous disorders and start biting their own wings? Sounds almost human, like nail-biting.
