Abstract
Hong Kong Chinese follow traditional Daoist or folk religion, along with Buddhist practices and ancestor worship. But most urban areas do not have neighborhood temples, and modern postindustrial life does not fit well with traditional religion. It is difficult to identify religion in Hong Kong because many people do not recognize their practices as religious. Many traditional practices and rituals, from neighborhood processions to “superstitions” like “beating the petty person” and fengshui, have been presented as heritage representing Hong Kong culture. Religion is thus overlooked in Hong Kong, and at the same time, diversity and tolerance are the characteristics that most mark the Hong Kong religious landscape.
