1471007900_Hint CommentsIt is always not easy to climb up Tai Tun in hot summer, we climb there in hot summer only aiming to have more spectacular and clearer views of Tsam Chuk Wan and Kau Sai Chau. Unfortunately, the weather was not very nice that day, visibility was not high even the views are splendid.
