3. Eastern District: It is the main concentration of human resources in Hong Kong. Fishermen lived in Shau Kei Wan until the port was opened. It is the second most populous district in Hong Kong, second only to Sha Tin District, and the median monthly income of residents in Eastern District ranks third in Hong Kong 18 District, second only to Central and Western District and Wan Chai District.

In addition, the PLA troops stationed in Hong Kong on Stonecutters Island also belong to this area. The traffic in the region is developed, and the subway, airport railway and expressway network running through it are very convenient to travel to and from the region, Hong Kong, Kowloon and the New Territories.

5. Kwun Tong District; This used to be an economic and military strategic place. The foothills of Kwun Tong, including Kowloon Bay, used to be salt fields, and salt production and tax collection from salt producers became the source of income for the government at that time. Kwun Tong, formerly known as Guantang, literally means a pond owned by the government. This is a small city, where industry, commerce and housing go hand in hand, but the old villages in this area, such as Lei Yue Mun, still retain a long cultural color.
Thirdly, the New Territories.

This is one of the most extensive areas in the New Territories, which can best preserve the rural characteristics.

Geographically, the North District can be divided into four sub-districts: Sheung Shui, Fanling, Sha Tau Kok and Ta Kwu Ling.
2. Tai Po District: It includes Tai Po, Tai Po Jiao, Ting Kok, Plover Cove and parts of the northern part of Sai Kung Peninsula. It is the second largest administrative region in Hong Kong.

3. Shatin District: There are four light industrial zones, including Tai Wai, Fo Tan, Siu Lek Yuen and Shimen. Shatin is a rapidly developing residential area in recent 15 years. Today's Sha Tin District was once a barren garden full of thorns, so it was called "Spine Garden". The early villages in Shatian District were built on both sides of Chengmen River. Because the river flowing from the upper reaches of Chengmen is very clear, it is called "Pear Garden".
4. Sai Kung District: It includes more than 70 islands in the southern part of Sai Kung Peninsula, Clear Water Bay Peninsula, Tseung Kwan O New Town and the eastern waters, and is the fifth largest district in Hong Kong 18. 95% of the population is concentrated in Tseung Kwan O New Town.

7. Yuen Long District: Surrounded by mountains on three sides, the terrain is flat, and Yuen Long is a plain. It turned out to be continuous farmland. In mountainous Hong Kong, there is only this flat and vast plain. There are many special snacks in Yuen Long District, and most of the food stores are concentrated in Yuen Long Avenue, Education Road and Anning Road in the center of Yuen Long.

9. Islands District: The largest area and the smallest population. The whole region consists of more than 20 islands, which are spread all over the south and southwest of Hong Kong.

Archaeological sites are all over Lantau Island, Lamma Island and Cheung Chau, and many precious cultural relics have been unearthed. In addition, the Tung Chung battery and the temples on the islands are also popular places for tourists. Angping has always been famous for Baolian Temple.
