Cipango (Cipan Guo) is the name of Japan which was first mentioned in the accounts of Macro Polo. A minimalist oriental-style houseboat blended with the element of Wood (木), Bamboo (竹) and Rattan (藤), creating the harmony that we have been always missing in this city.
The houseboat is located near the Aberdeen Fish Market in South of Hong Kong Island. Close to Aberdeen and Ap Lei Chau (Lei Tung MTR Station). It has an authentic 360° harbour view, experiencing the sunlight and sea breeze.
