About Yim Tin Tsai:

• Yim Tin Tsai, a tiny island with a rich and storied past. Its name literally means ’Little Salt Pan’ in Cantonese and it is the only place in Hong Kong where salt is produced today.
• That fascinating history may have been lost if not for a movement to revive the island that began in about 2000. That work has not only earned the island recognition from UNESCO but has turned it into one of Hong Kong’s most exciting, off-the-beaten-track day trips.
