The Cheung Chau Jiao Festival was held on Cheung Chau today, featuring an array of local customary and fun-filled events.

 

Originating from a traditional ritual to expel bad spirits, the festival's Grand Parade featured lion dances and colourful processions.

 

The day's highlight, the Bun Scrambling Competition, will be held at Pak Tai Temple Playground at midnight with 12 finalists competing to climb the bun tower in the quickest time and snatch as many buns as possible.
