Kwong Fuk Bridge

Kwong Fuk Bridge, Pedestrian bridge across Lam Tsuen River in Tai Po District, Hong Kong.

Kwong Fuk Bridge is a footbridge that spans the Lam Tsuen River in Tai Po District with red pillars and dedicated pathways for pedestrians and cyclists on both sides. The structure connects two shores and serves as part of the local transportation network for everyday use.

In 1892 the Tai Wo market was founded across the Lam Tsuen River from Tai Po Old Market, and crossings by ferry cost two cash. Man Cham-chuen of Tai Hang Yue raised funds for a stone-pier bridge with long stone slab decking, completed in 1896 and named Kwong Fuk Bridge, with a stele placed in the Man Mo Temple. After the 1898 lease of the New Territories a vehicle bridge was added alongside; it was widened in 1957. The whole bridge was demolished in 1986 and replaced by a pedestrian and cycle bridge with red pillars and green tiles, reusing the old stone balustrades and piers.

The name Kwong Fuk combines the characters for 'broad' and 'blessing'; a stone inscription commemorating the bridge's construction was placed in the Man Mo Temple. The 1896 crossing was funded by subscriptions raised after Man Cham-chuen of Tai Hang Yeuk proposed the project, and the bridge helped Tai Wo Market overtake the old Tai Po market.

The easiest way to reach it is to use Exit B from Tai Po Market Station and walk down Po Nga Road until you cross Ting Kok Road. It is helpful to know that the path is well marked and that you can use the bridge at any time of day.

The 1986 pedestrian bridge kept the stone balustrades and stone piers dismantled from the old crossing and set them into the new structure as decoration. Its red-columned, green-tiled Chinese design was later repeated on the Lam Tsuen River at Kam Shek Bridge, Kam Wo Bridge and Tai Wo Bridge.
