Description

This is Wai Loi Tsuen in Hong Kong. It is one of the very last rural settlements which has retained its original moat, which looks like a horseshoe from a bird's eye view. Trees are planted along the moat to embrace the densely packed village houses, making the village a pleasant green settlement.
