Lantau Island is the largest island in Hong Kong, with a land mass of 147.16 square kilometres. It is primarily mountainous terrain, with Lantau Peak being the highest point at 934 metres. The island is often referred to as "the lungs of Hong Kong" due to its abundance of indigenous forest. Lantau South Country Park is the largest country park in Hong Kong, covering slightly more than half of the island's area. The island has a relatively low population density, with settlements scattered throughout. The north-western part of the island has undergone significant development, including the construction of Tung Chung New Town and Hong Kong International Airport, resulting in a population of over 45,000 people.learn more on wikipedia
