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.
Thousands of locals and tourists flocked to the island to watch the parade where children dressed in colourful costumes were carried on floats.
Residents baked and distributed fortune buns to wish visitors good health and happiness.
The day's highlight, the Bun Scrambling Competition, will be held at Pak Tai Temple Playground tonight with 12 finalists climbing a bun tower to snatch as many buns as possible.
