Pai Tau Village is located next to Sha Tin train station and adjacent to large commercial centres. Its inhabitants seem to love plants as you can see lots of flowers in pots and large bonzai trees displayed in the centre of the plaza (playgrand).
Facing the entrance (opposite the green mini-bus terminus and taxi stand) people are buying candied kumquat, ginger, and other different flavours from a booth covered with large colourful striped beach umbrellas. Further away on the righ side is a small parking lot.
There are a few small restaurants in the village.
At week-ends and on specific days to honor the deads throngs of people walk to the nearby Po Fuk Memorial Hall and very often you can see tourists with cameras around their neck looking for signage to direct them to the Ten Thousand Buddha Monastery.
By the curb leading to the train station the Mobile Softee van is parked almost every day blaring music to attract passerbys to eat its ice-creams.
