hong kong, china

Departure: 19:00

According to a report by the Hong Kong Archaeological Society, people had already settled in Tsuen Wan as early as two thousand years ago. In earlier times it was known as Tsin Wan (淺灣), meaning “shallow bay,” and was later renamed Tsuen Wan. Another name, Tsak Wan (賊灣, Hakka pronunciation: tshet wan), meaning “pirate bay,” suggests that pirates once operated nearby. The area around Rambler Channel was also known as Sam Pak Tsin (三百錢), literally “three hundred coins,” based on a legend that pirates would demand three hundred coins from anyone passing through. In 1911, about 3,000 villagers lived in Tsuen Wan. In the 20th century, factories gradually moved in because of its proximity to Kowloon. After Castle Peak Road was built in 1917, motor vehicles could reach the town, supplementing access by foot and by boat. Regular bus services did not start until 1933. Early industries used the abundant local water supply to produce incense sticks, preserved fruit, and agricultural products, while post-war industries included metalware and textiles.

Arrival: 07:00 - Departure: 19:00

Keelung, officially known as Keelung City, is a major port city in northeastern Taiwan. It borders New Taipei, and together with Taipei they form the Taipei–Keelung metropolitan area. Nicknamed the “Rainy Port” for its frequent rainfall and maritime importance, Keelung is Taiwan’s second-largest seaport after Kaohsiung. Keelung has a humid subtropical climate and is known as one of the wettest and gloomiest cities in the world, a condition influenced by the Kuroshio Current. Although it is one of Taiwan’s coolest cities, winters are still short and mild, while summers are long, relatively dry, and hot. One of Taiwan’s most popular festivals is the mid-summer Ghost Festival. The Keelung Ghost Festival is among the oldest in Taiwan, dating back to 1851, after violent clashes between rival clans that claimed many lives before mediators intervened.

Located between the Yellow Sea, the East China Sea, and the Sea of Japan, Jeju holds an important economic, political, and military position for South Korea.

Jeju has a temperate climate, and even in winter temperatures rarely fall below 0 °C (32 °F).
