The first time I passed by Sham Tseng was an accidental discovery when I was riding my bicycle. I broke into a gatehouse on the outskirts with this classmate. After a quick glance, I didn’t have too many special feelings. As a road name controller in a sense, I just remember

There is a road name with the word "Yue" and the dark night.

Passing through the other side for the second time, construction work was going on, shops, buildings, and bridges were being built, perhaps with the intention of developing tourism resources.

I was somewhat worried about the future of Shenjing, and this place was finally targeted.

Shenjing Village was originally named "Jinding" and is quite impressive. It has been seven or eight hundred years since the village was founded.

Later, it was renamed because of a deep well in the village. It was occasionally jokingly called "nerve", but there was no ice in the deep well.

Coordinates: Changzhou Town, Huangpu District, Guangzhou City.

One of the distinctive features of Sham Tseng is that it is located on Cheung Chau Island at the estuary of the Pearl River. Its geographical location determines its transportation methods to connect with the outside world.

Most residents use ferry as their main mode of travel. Generally, they can go from San Chau Pier to Sham Tseng Pier, or from Yuzhu Pier to Cheung Chau Pier, and then walk or take the island's bus from Cheung Chau Island to Sham Tseng Village.

If you don’t try a ferry here, it’s like you’ve never been there.

Choose a good day with clear water, wide river surface, and the comfort of being on the boat with your clothes in the wind is indescribable.

Along the way, you can see military shipyards and Dan family fishing boats.

I made a special trip with my friends. The scope of map navigation is limited, so we can only rely on the primitive method of asking for directions.

The villagers who gave directions along the way included store owners, men riding motorcycles, sanitation workers, old people at the ancestral hall, park rangers, etc. From their conversations, you could tell that they were "indigenous" villagers here, and they were enthusiastic about guiding the way.

Curious about our apparently touristy, exploratory eyes on our surroundings.

It is probably difficult for the local people who live here and are involved in it to understand what kind of place they live in and live with day and night, and what is valuable and special in the eyes of others.
