Ap Lei Chau Waterfront Promenade


Directly facing Aberdeen Promenade across the typhoon shelter, Ap Lei Chau Waterfront Promenade is where commuter ferries from Aberdeen stop. People in the neighbourhood come here to fish in the evening. It has a pleasant walking trail and a plaza where you'll find the old Hung Shing Temple.
