Shaolin Wushu Cultural Centre
Lantau Island
Shek Tsai Po Street, Tai O
If you’re craving an escape from the CBD’s frantic pace and dizzying lights, head to Tai O. A fishing village dotted with stilt houses where you’ll find shrimp paste fermenting in large drums and salted egg yolk curing under the sun, this remote Lantau getaway will heal your city blues.
To get the full detox treatment, stay at the Shaolin Wushu Cultural Centre. Here, visitors can partake in martial arts training and Zen meditation. Along with five hostel rooms that can accommodate up to 64 guests, the compound also boasts a canteen serving authentic Shaolin-style vegetarian meals.
