Yam O (陰澳) is at the northern part of the Lantau Island, in Hong Kong.
MTR is building a railway linking Yam O with the future Hong Kong Disneyland theme park. The station for the Disneyland train will be Yan O Station on Tung Chung Line.
Yam O may be renamed to Sunny Bay (or Yan O in Cantonese) (欣澳), because of the construction of the Disneyland theme park at Penny's Bay.
Yam (陰) in Chinese (Cantonese) means dark (the same word as the Mandarin yin, well known to most English speakers from the expression yin-yang), but Yan (欣) means happy, therefore prompting the Hong Kong Government to change the name to provide a suitable atmosphere for the Disneyland rail link.
