Busy times
About this place
Located adjacent to the historic, Grade II-listed Hau Wong Temple in Tung Chung, this tranquil outdoor neighborhood playground provides a refreshing, crowd-free alternative to busy commercial play areas. Surrounded by trees, grass, and flowers, it overlooks Tung Chung Bay and Scenic Hill. Local and visiting families come to let their children enjoy classic outdoor play equipment in a relaxed, scenic setting that connects play with local history and nature.
Things to know
Pack the Essentials
Bring full water bottles, sun hats, a small first-aid kit, and plenty of mosquito repellent (especially between April and October) due to the dense surrounding greenery and nearby bay water.
No On-Site Shops
There are no convenience stores or snack shops immediately at the playground or temple. For food, drinks, and shopping, you will need to walk back to Yat Tung Estate (approx. 10 to 15 minutes away).
Beat the Humidity
The best times to visit are early morning (8:00 AM to 10:00 AM) or late afternoon (after 4:00 PM). The mid-day sun makes the outdoor equipment extremely hot and shade is limited.
Respect the Sacred Area
The playground shares its footprint with an active, historic temple. Parents should guide their children to play respectfully and minimize loud screaming or disruptive play near worship spaces.

Location & getting there
Getting here
Take the Tung Chung Line to Tung Chung MTR Station. From Exit A or B, the playground is approximately a 20 to 30-minute walk via Fu Tung Estate and Yat Tung Estate along Yu Tung Road. Alternatively, take New Lantao Bus No. 38 from the station's bus terminus to Yat Tung Estate, then walk.
Board New Lantao Bus route 38, 37, 39M, E31, or E21A and alight at Yat Tung Estate Bus Terminus. From the terminus, walk along the pedestrian section of Yu Tung Road (west end) and follow the tourist signs pointing toward Hau Wong Temple (about a 10 to 15-minute walk).
Private cars cannot drive directly to or park at the playground. Drivers must navigate to Yat Tung Estate Car Park (8 Yat Tung Street, Tung Chung), park there, and complete the remaining journey on foot (about a 15-minute walk).
You can instruct a taxi driver to drop you off at the western end of Yu Tong Road (near Yat Tung Estate). From there, walk the final 5 minutes along the flat, concrete coastal path leading to the temple and playground.
