Lung Ha Wan Rock Carving, Ancient rock carving site in Clear Water Bay Peninsula, Hong Kong.
Lung Ha Wan Rock Carving is a prehistoric site with geometric patterns etched into the rock surface along the eastern coast of the peninsula. The lines and shapes cover several sections of the coastal stone in this bay area.
The site dates back to prehistoric times and was later designated a declared monument to protect its archaeological value. This official status marked the beginning of efforts to preserve ancient places for future generations.
The carved patterns show how ancient people who lived here expressed themselves and left their mark on the rock face. You can still see today how deliberately each line was made into the stone.
Visitors should follow the Lung Ha Wan Country Trail and bring water supplies, since the site requires a moderate hike with no facilities nearby. Wearing sturdy shoes is advisable, and checking tide times helps because access to the rocks changes depending on water levels.
The site sits within Lobster Bay, where surrounding rock formations create a natural bowl-like shape facing the South China Sea. This geographic feature makes the rocky landscape acoustically and visually distinctive for visitors.
