The Pang Clan (彭氏家族) is one of the five great clans of the New Territories in Hong Kong, alongside the Tang, Liu, Man, and Hau clans. As one of the oldest and most prominent lineages, being a member of the Pang Clan means carrying a legacy rooted in over 700 years of history, tradition, and cultural significance. The Pang Clan is known for its dedication to preserving ancestral ties, historical relics, and unique customs.

The clan traces its origins to the Ming Dynasty, with its establishment in Fanling Wai, a historic walled village renowned for its feng shui design and fish ponds. The village was founded by three key ancestors—Pang Kwei, Pang Lok, and Pang Tsuen—who laid the groundwork for the clan’s growth and influence in the region.

Today, the Pang Clan is celebrated not only for its historical contributions but also for its ongoing efforts to maintain traditional festivals, such as the Tai Ping Ching Chiu every decade and annual Lunar New Year celebrations. Fanling Wai remains a central site of cultural and historical significance, showcasing ancient relics like pre-war cannons, the Peng Ancestral Hall, and other heritage landmarks. Being part of the Pang Clan symbolizes pride in heritage, connection to a deep cultural history, and a commitment to preserving traditions for future generations.

Fanling Wai is a historic walled village in Fanling, New Territories, Hong Kong, built by the Pang Clan during the Ming dynasty’s Wanli period (1572–1620). Renowned for its feng shui-inspired layout, it features defensive walls, watchtowers, ancestral halls, and a central village pond. As one of Hong Kong’s few remaining walled villages, Fanling Wai preserves traditional Chinese architectural and cultural heritage. Today, it is celebrated for its historical significance, ancestral rituals, and traditional festivals, such as the Tai Ping Ching Chiu.
