Lung Ha Wan Rock Carving

Lung Ha Wan Rock Carving, Declared monument in Clear Water Bay Peninsula, Sai Kung District, 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 carving was found in 1978 by a group of hikers on an east-facing rock face at Lung Ha Wan, on the Clear Water Bay Peninsula in Sai Kung District. It is now a declared monument of Hong Kong. Some scholars argue the markings are purely the result of natural erosion, and the debate remains unresolved.

The carving's geometric lines, some resembling birds, animals and eyes, are now faint from weathering, and scholars still debate whether they were made by people or are natural erosion marks. The site was found in 1978 by a group of hikers.

The carving lies on an east-facing rock face in Lung Ha Wan, reached via the Lung Ha Wan Country Trail in Clear Water Bay Country Park; the approach is a hike with no facilities, so carry water and wear sturdy shoes. The rock art is protected as a declared monument, so visitors should view it from a distance and avoid touching the weathered surface.

Some scholars argue the markings are not human-made at all but the result of natural erosion, and the debate remains unresolved. The carvings were found in 1978 by a group of hikers on an east-facing rock surface, and weathering has since left the geometric lines, including shapes read as birds, animals and eyes, very faint.
