Tin Sam Tsuen is a small village in Hung Shui Kiu, in northern Hong Kong. It has small brick houses in traditional colours. There is also an ancestral hall with green and white walls.
The village has been home to residents for hundreds of years. It has about 50 households left.
Residents celebrate newborns with special rituals. They also host banquets during festivals. Villagers come together and share meals laid out across 20 to 30 tables.
Chan Ho-yee is in her forties. She has been living in a house built by her late father since she was born. She said her family has lived in the village for more than 360 years.
Some of the houses date back to the Qing dynasty. But the houses and the ancestral altar may soon be destroyed by bulldozers.
The government plans to replace them with modern towers. It hopes to turn the area into a services and logistics hub.
Some residents said they were anxious about the move. Others remained hopeful that the village could be relocated nearby.
Chan, who lives with her 80-year-old mother, said residents had been trying to speak with the government to find a solution since 2015.
