<p>A rare large-scale production of a Greek tragedy comes to the local stage as part of the ongoing Hong Kong Arts Festival. The National Theatre of Greece’s take on Euripides’ dramatic play explores deep into the psyche and the ongoing conflict between abstinence and desire, divine intervention and human willpower. It emphasises the role of Aphrodite, the manipulative goddess of love who sees mortals as mere playthings to be used and cast aside on a whim. First staged in Athens circa 428 BC, Hippolytus never fails to resonate with modern audiences.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Immerse yourself in the joyous atmosphere of the Cheung Chau Bun Festival. This is one of Hong Kong’s most anticipated festivals. The event is thought to emanate from a plague that swept through the island of Cheung Chau two centuries ago when deities were paraded through the streets to ward off the evil spirits cursing the local community. Young children in traditional costumes atop poles are paraded through the village in their place. The climbing carnival (5 May) or thrilling bun-scrambling contests held during the festivities ensure a day trip to remember.</p>

<p>Take the opportunity to celebrate Buddha’s Birthday by visiting one of the many temples that honour the tradition of the Buddha bathing ceremony. This celebration derives from the time when nine dragons – as told in legend – sprayed infant Hindu prince Siddhartha Gautama (born 563 BCE) with water; he went on to found Buddhism in India. In homage to the significance of this act, these events are replayed by Buddhist devotes who bathe statues of Buddha at various ceremonies in Hong Kong.</p>
