Lau Shui Heung Reservoir, Irrigation reservoir in New Territories, Hong Kong
Description
Lau Shui Heung Reservoir is a water storage facility in northern Hong Kong that holds drinking water for the region. The basin is surrounded by green hills and forms a large body of water that stretches across the landscape.
History
The reservoir was built in the second half of the 20th century to supply drinking water for Hong Kong's growing population. It forms part of a larger water management system that connects multiple reservoirs across the region.
Practical
Access to the reservoir is restricted since it is a water supply facility not designed for public leisure. However, surrounding paths offer views of the water and surrounding landscape from a distance.
Did you know?
The reservoir lies in one of Hong Kong's less visited areas and is often overlooked by hikers passing through the region. Despite its importance to water supply, it remains a quiet and relatively unknown spot for most visitors.
