Lakes and Rivers in Hong Kong
03/08/2019
Because of this, the terrain can nurture relatively shorter and smaller rivers in Hong Kong than in southern China.
Historically, these rivers once sustained intensive farming for the need of population before the age of developing new towns.
Many rivers can be found in the New Territories, especially in the areas north of Tai Mo Shan, where rice growing and fish farming were once everywhere amidst several river systems.
Lakes of Hong Kong:
Bride's Pool
Inspiration Lake
Mirror Pool
Po Chu Tam
Lecky Youth Pool
