Environment

A small river runs through the village. In 2007, a large snake, python reticulatus, was discovered in the river. Since this type of snake is considered endangered in Hong Kong, it was put in a wildlife conservation.

Public transport

Kowloon Motor Bus routes 91, 91M, 92, and several green minibuses and red minibuses serve the village at a nearby bus stop on Clear Water Bay Road. Services run along Clear Water Bay Road to/from Choi Hung station (3.4 kilometres (2.1 miles) to the east) and beyond. Choi Hung is the most accessible station on the Hong Kong MTR to Tseng Lan Shue.

The village is one of the benchmarks for hikers on the Wilson Trail, which crosses the village. Clear Water Bay Road marks the separation between stage 3 and stage 4 of the Wilson Trail.
