Guided Tours for the Fisherfolks' Lifestyle and Culture
Aberdeen has the richest history among all locations in the Southern District. The history of fisheries and fishing communities in Aberdeen are invaluable cultural treasures. We Are With You Project will help the local community to preserve and turn its rich culture and history into social capital. HKU students work closely with the community to piece together vanishing life stories of the fishing communities and reveal them through guided tours.
