| Description: |
Tonnes of buns, papier-mâché effigies, lion dancers and tall tales of ancient evil spirits all converge on the island of Cheung Chau to create one of the world’s quirkiest local festivals — the Cheung Chau Bun Festival. The annual Bun Carnival has been well received by the public. The wide range of programmes including the Climbing Carnival and the Bun Scrambling Competition attract many locals and overseas tourists to participate.
