1Sam Tung Uk Museum
Sam Tung Uk Museum is a beautifully preserved Hakka walled village that offers a rare window into the rural life of early Hong Kong settlers. Built in 1786 by the Chan clan, this "Three-Hall Dwelling" was once surrounded by rice fields. As Tsuen Wan developed into a new town in the 1970s, the villagers were relocated, and the site was declared a monument in 1981 to preserve its unique architectural symmetry.

A short walk from the museum, the Tin Hau Kung (Tin Hau Temple) serves as a reminder of Tsuen Wan’s coastal past before massive land reclamation. Originally built in 1845, the temple was dedicated to Tin Hau, the Goddess of the Sea, who protected the local fishermen. The current structure dates largely to 1873 after a typhoon destroyed the original; it remains a focal point for the community during the Tin Hau Festival.
