Nan Sang Wai, Yuen Long
14 October 2004 - 4:36am
As our Hong Kong's famous Miss Crocodile "Pui Pui" had been captured months ago, the place Nan Sang Wai was rarely heard from local news. I went to Nan Sang Wai last Sunday to took some photos, it looked rather different from the last time I visited there a year ago, people had delibrately set fire to burn down grasses :mad: :mad:!
I believe the grass will grow quickly and restoring the scene, and now it's still worth going there to take a walk at the weekend!

Hi Dennis:
Yes, Nam San Wai dropped off the radar after the crafty croc was caught; glad to see it still looks a pleasant place. (In case anyone seeing your photo is inspired to visit, any tips on how best to get there?)

The url below may help
http://www.wetlandtour.net/enhtml/Nam_Sun_Wai.doc
I set off from West-rail Yuen Long Station, walked along the Yuen Long Kau Hui Road to Shan Pui Village, and took the "Kai Do" sampan to cross the river (HK$5 each person), and returned on the same route.
Hope the above info could help. :rolleyes: [img width=320]http://www.hkoutdoors.com/components/com_simpleboard/uploaded/images/IMG_3276a.jpg[/img]
