Today we jointed a cruise to桥嘴岛,High Island reservoir, 破边洲，粮船洲High island ( a much huger island than I expected) for more than 5 hours along the coastal lines covering 100 km2, including submerged areas with the pentagonal or hexagonal volcanic rocks).

It was just amazing and spectacular. The first time to view  pentagonal or hexagonal volcanic rocks in such great scales  - one of my dreams in life.

A surprising thing finding is: Natural Vitamin D from the sunlight gave me inner warm, recharged and healthy feelings. I was in the wind and warm spring sun for almost all the time without a cold symptom. That was I didn’t imagine although I almost throw out due to a bad sea-sickness for some moments.

Please view the photos of the world-class Geo-park and see and feel how beautiful HK natural scenery can be. Who says HK is short of natural attractions? They have not been yet by the World. Let's appreciate the sheer beauty - our world class Geo-park.
