Ever wondered how a celebration on an outlying island became one of Hong Kong’s coolest cultural events? With papier-m\u00e2ch\u00e9 effigies, lion dancers and its iconic bun scramble, Cheung Chau Bun Festival is renowned as one of\u00a0world’s quirkiest festivals!<\/h2>\n

It didn’t start as all fun and games though. In<\/span> the late Qing dynasty, Cheung Chau was hit by a nasty plague. The locals invited Taoist priests to set up a sacrificial altar near Pak Tai Temple to pray for blessings and peace<\/strong>. Villagers paraded deity statues through the streets<\/strong> and handed out buns as offerings called Ping On Buns<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

When the plague eventually lifted,\u00a0 the islanders made the celebration an annual event as a symbol of gratitude<\/strong>. This once humble tradition has become not only a city-wide attraction<\/strong>, but internationally renowned, drawing crowds thanks to its unique charm<\/strong>. What began as a result of the plague has transformed into a cultural phenomenon. Here’s everything you need to know about them buns <\/strong>if you’re planning to join this year’s festivities!<\/span><\/p>\n
