Siu Lek Yuen Nullah, Drainage channel in Sha Tin District, Hong Kong.

Siu Lek Yuen Nullah functions as a concrete-lined waterway that channels rainwater and runoff from the surrounding hills into the Shing Mun River system.

The construction of this drainage channel occurred during the development of Sha Tin New Town, forming an essential part of the area's water management infrastructure.

The name reflects the Chinese geographical naming tradition, as 'Siu Lek Yuen' translates to 'the origin of small river' in Cantonese.

The nullah serves as a primary drainage system for the neighborhood, managing water flow during Hong Kong's intense rainfall periods and preventing local flooding.

This watercourse stands out by connecting directly to the broader Shing Mun River network while supporting the local ecosystem along its constructed banks.
