Bugs! They are Everywhere!
70% of Peng Chau is green area. Diverse flora used for traditional Chinese medicine can be found, as well as many flowering plants, ferns, native and foreign species of trees, and cactus. Far from the pollution of the city, the island is a haven for 50-some species of birds, 100-some kinds of insects and some rare lichens. Take a look at some pictures:
