Duk Ling Ride
Back to Section Index

Board an authentic Chinese junk and set sail into Hong Kong's scenic harbour for a 360-degree view of the city's impressive skyline. Originally owned and manned by Chinese fishermen, the Duk Ling is typical of the junks which used to crisscross Hong Kong's waterways 150 years ago - a reminder of the romance and intrigue that accompanied the early taipans and traders who settled here.

 

After having sailed the waters and deep sea channels for more than 25 years, the vessel was lovingly restored in the 1980s to her original classic design. Today, the Duk Ling is the last authentic sailing junk in Hong Kong.
