Lantau is one of Hong Kong's most developed outlying islands, yet traditional farming communities and fishing villages continue to exist alongside the airport and Disneyland.
The island has managed to retain a strong cultural heritage regardless of the huge airport development and the construction of the Tung Chung New Town.
Formerly famous as the home of the Big Buddha, newer tourist attractions, such as the Ngong Ping 360 Cable Car, have made the island a must-visit destination.
Despite the addition of modern architecture and transport systems, Lantau is still seen as a relaxing and scenic place to visit.
Recently, as part of the Robert H.N. Ho Family Foundation's community project 'Through Our Eyes', five students set out with their cameras to explore both the traditional and modern sides of the island.
They found Lantau green, fresh and natural - a very different experience from the busy urban areas of the city.
Ivan Wong Chun-yuen, 17, a student from Po Leung Kuk Ngan Po Ling College, said: 'Lantau is the greenest district in Hong Kong - there is greenery as far as you can see.
