Sunset Peak, Mountain summit in Lantau Island, Hong Kong.
The 869-meter-high Sunset Peak features extensive grass slopes that contrast with the surrounding ocean views and neighboring mountain ranges.
The stone cabins standing on the ridge were constructed in the 1920s by British missionaries who needed shelter during their mountain expeditions.
Local farmers maintained a network of trails around Sunset Peak, including the Luk Tei Tong Watchtower built in the 1940s for protection.
Hikers can start their journey from Pak Kung Au, following the Lantau Trail markers through forests before reaching the grassy mountain sections.
The mountain displays fields of silver grass that move with the winds, creating patterns across the slopes during autumn months.
