Hong Kong 香港 Sai Ying Pun 西營盤

Wander around Sai Ying Pun, and you'll find old-school craftsmanship around every street corner. In this tight-knit community, you see artisans at work in small workshops and tucked-away factories. The honest, traditional skills of woodworkers, bamboo crafters, and joss-paper makers are still in demand. Ancient noodle and biscuit recipes are kept alive in this neighbourhood; you can find, for instance, Hong Kong's oldest soy sauce factory here. Follow this itinerary to experience SYP's proud and unique workmanship, hidden gems and history. 西營盤,百年山城,彈丸之地卻聚集了不少工藝師傅。百工居肆,由紮作、織補;做麵、整餅; 木廠、醬油廠,一一出自西營盤。工匠們對其手藝的執著
