After lived many years in the city on Hong Kong Island, I have decided to move to Cheung Chau for a change of scenary, fresh air and more affordable housing.
I have searched the forums here and havent found too much info about life on Cheung Chau. Hope somebody could fill me in on a couple of questions I have.
1. About how much would a 1 to 2 bedroom flat with a balcony cost to rent nowadays?
2. Is there a Wellcome or Park n Shop on the island or only small local shops?
3. What if I need to have furniture or other big / heavy items delivered to the island? Will people only drop it off at the ferry pier and I have to manage to get in on and off the ferry by myself?
4. Is there a monthly ticket available for the ferry and how much does it cost?
5. Is there a Gym on the island? (a small local one will do)
6. I know there are many seafood / chinese restaurants, but what about other restaurants?
I would be grateful for any answers and other tips you might have.
