Luk Keng Village or Luk Keng Tsuen (Chinese: 鹿頸村) is a village located at the peninsula of Yam O, Lantau Island, New Territories, Hong Kong, which links to Cheung Sok, a nearby uninhabited island, by a sandbank. There is a small pier with kai-to transportation service to Tsing Lung Tau, Tsuen Wan. Although its nearby areas such as Sunny Bay Station have been developed, Luk Keng Village is still preserved as an undeveloped rural heritage area.
In December 2007, some archaeologists found some Tang dynasty kilns in Luk Keng Village, but some of them were destroyed by the construction of barbecue area in there by the Hong Kong SAR Government.

Famous quotes containing the word village:
“But I go with my friend to the shore of our little river, and with one stroke of the paddle, I leave the village politics and personalities, yes, and the world of villages and personalities behind, and pass into a delicate realm of sunset and moonlight, too bright almost for spotted man to enter without novitiate and probation.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
