![]() “Bun
Scrambling Competition” is an annual traditional event with distinctive
features during Cheung Chau Bun Festival (“Cheung Chau Da Jiu Festival”) held by
local communities in Cheung Chau, Hong Kong.
There is a saying that “Bun
Scrambling Competition” started in Cheung Chau as early as in the Qing Dynasty
in the 18th century. At that time the island was devastated by a plague that
caused heavy casualties. It is said that the plague ended with the guidance of
Pak Tai (the Chinese God).
In an attempt to express their
gratitude to the mercy of Pak Tai, the locals dressed themselves as deities and
paraded through the streets to drive away the evil spirits. This activity was
later made as annual event called Cheung Chau Da Jiu Festival. During that
festival, three “Bun Mountains” (or Bun Towers) would be built in celebration of
the Cheung Chau Da Jiu Festival for the locals to compete for the buns. It is
the traditional belief that the more the buns one collects, the greater fortune
one will get.
