Junks, Sampans, Lorchas and Other Vessels of Macao & Hong Kong



The beautiful "Serene Junk" is owned and occaisionally operated by the Macao Maritime Museum.

There are examples of sailing junks, sampans and "lorchas" in the links that follow, all acquired on my trip to Macao and Hong Kong. I hope to return some day and do more extensive exploring.
