Tin Hau temples are typical places of worship in Hong Kong´s coastal communities.
There are two Tin Hau temples on Lamma, located in Yung Shue Wan and Sok Kwu Wan. Both were built in 1826. The Tin Hau Festival is widely celebrated by the fishermen´s communities in Lamma. Lamma Island is also one of the few remaining places in Hong Kong where traditional Chinese New Years celebrations still takes place. At the stroke of midnight, Chinese fireworks will be set off by the main families of the villages, sending off a deafening thunder that can last up to 30 minutes. This tradition is believed to frighten away the evil spirits.
