Cheung Chau's Bun Festival: A Century Old Tradition of Celebration and Devotion The streets of Hong Kong's outlying island, Cheung Chau, were abuzz with revelers as they gathered to celebrate the bun festival.
This iconic event has drawn in crowds for decades, but its significance goes beyond mere spectacle. At its core, the bun festival is an expression of community devotion and resilience.
The festival's highlight, the "bun scrambling" competition, showcases agility and strategy as contestants scale a tower covered with plastic buns within a time limit while avoiding chaos.
