Hong Kong, Yung Shue Wan, 15 January 2011 Lamma island, half an hour by ferry from Hong Kong Central is an ideal destination for spending a day in the territory without cars and highrises. The island is home for about 6000 inhabitants and most live in the biggest village Yung Shue Wan, including a seizable number of foreigners. The harbour is still pittoresque despite the coal fired powerstation on the other side with now 3 chimneys. The only traffic allowed are bicycles and motorised mini trucks. Photo Kees Metselaar
