Bun Scrambling Contest

The Annual Bun Scrambling Competition is an electrifying match held during Cheung Chau Bun Festival. Cheung Chau is an outlying island in Hong Kong, packed with rich indigenous culture & lively celebrations. In early May, crowds gather nearby a fishermen's temple to witness the competition. A Bun Tower(or Bun Mountain) is constructed by bamboos plus buns on a pitch beforehand. The participant who grabs the most buns after climbing up the tower will win a trophy, known as "The King of Bun Mountain".
