If you’re craving a beautiful escape into nature, the newly expanded Cherry Blossom Garden on Chep Lap Kok Island is your ideal spot. With mesmerizing blooms and a peaceful atmosphere, this garden is a stunning backdrop for a day out with friends, and family, or even for some quiet time alone.
Situated on Lantau Island and just a short MTR ride from the hustle of Hong Kong, this locale is perfect for nature lovers and anyone hoping to capture that perfect Instagram-worthy shot.
A Closer Look at the Cherry Blossom Garden's Expansion
Strolling through the garden feels like stepping into a postcard. The soft rustling of leaves and the delicate petals drifting down create a calming vibe. The expansion enhances the garden’s layout with benches giving a great view of Tung Chung Bay, Lantau Peak and the Ngong Ping cable car. Bring a picnic and enjoy the soft astroturf as you watch the sunset over the bay.
Directions to the Cherry Blossom Garden
I recommend using public transport to get to the cherry blossom garden.
From Tung Chung MTR
Walk out exit B. Head through the plaza towards the cable car terminal. Cross over Tat Tung Road and head through the park. There is a great restaurant in Tat Tung Road Park called Hidden Heat which you can enjoy after visiting the blossom. Like the Cherry Blossom Garden, Hidden Heat has extended its space too so now you can sit out in the spring sunshine and enjoy some tasty Sichuan cuisine. Pop out the back of the park by the overhead walkway. Take the stairs up, across the road, then down on the left. Follow the road around to the right, past the roundabout and across the bridge. The cherry trees are there on the left.
Make sure to bring your camera! The photo opportunities are limitless, especially during blossom season. Whether you capture close-ups of the delicate blooms or rabbits and dogs dressed as ballerinas, you'll find stunning visuals at every turn.
