－Itinerary introduction－

1. The Tai Mo Shan cherry blossom viewing tour started as early as the 1980s. The Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department has been planting cherry blossoms in various local country parks. Later, the Leisure and Cultural Services Department also planted cherry blossom trees in different parks. There are still 40 cherry blossom trees in Tai Mo Shan Rotary Park in Tsuen Wan, which bloom in February and are in full bloom. The Hong Kong cherry blossom variety is mountain cherry, also known as bell cherry or crimson cherry. It is pendant and blooms in February every year. However, the actual flowering period "depends on God's will" because warm weather will cause the cherry blossoms to bloom earlier, while rain will cause the cherry blossoms to bloom earlier. It will knock off fragile flowers. If the weather continues to be cold, March is still suitable for flower viewing.

When the British army occupied the New Territories in 1899, the library was used as a temporary police station and land office. Although the imperial examination system was abolished at the beginning of the 20th century, the imperial examination room still shouldered the function of educating the children of the clan.

   
   
6. Tang's Ancestral Hall The Tang's Ancestral Hall is a building with three bays and two courtyards. It is a model of similar ancient buildings in Hong Kong. There are drum stands on both sides in front of the main entrance, each with two columns supporting the tiled roof. The inner columns are made of granite and the outer columns are made of red sandstone. The most distinctive feature is that the main entrance of the ancestral hall has no threshold, but there is a sandstone corridor in the front yard, which shows that some of the Deng clan members once held important positions in the imperial court at that time.
