{{Use Hong Kong English|date=April 2019}}{{Use dmy dates|date=April 2019}}The historic churches of Sai Kung form a group of 11 Roman Catholic churches and chapels established in the 19th and 20th centuries by missionaries in the Sai Kung area, across the Sai Kung District and Tai Po District (Sai Kung North) of Hong Kong. HistoryThe churches were established by missionaries from the Seminary of Foreign Missions of Milan (now the Pontifical Institute for Foreign Missions).[1] The first missionary to take up residence in Sai Kung, in 1865, was Fr. P. Gaetano Origo (1835-1868).[2] A first chapel was opened in Sai Kung Town in late 1865.[3] - Hakka villages included: Wong Mo Ying, Yim Tin Tsai
- Punti villages included: Chek Keng, Tai Long Tsuen

The site is now used as a training campsite by the Catholic Scout Guild. | Grade III | | | {{coord>22.377457|114.301681|name=St. Joseph's Chapel, Yim Tin Tsai}} | St. Joseph's Chapel (鹽田梓聖若瑟小堂)
