Tsuen Wan New Town

Tsuen Wan New Town, New town in Tsuen Wan District and Kwai Tsing District, Hong Kong.

Tsuen Wan New Town is a large urban area combining residential towers, shopping centers, parks, and office buildings in a mixed arrangement. Different zones are connected by wide roads and form a densely populated neighborhood near the Kowloon peninsula.

Tsuen Wan began as a satellite town in the 1950s, alongside Kwun Tong. In 1961 the government gazetted it as Hong Kong's first new town, expanding into Kwai Chung and Tsing Yi. Kwai Tsing split off as a separate district in 1985, and in 2011 the town marked its golden jubilee with fireworks over Rambler Channel.

Tsuen Wan's old market mode survives around Chung On Street, where jewellery shops cluster in the Tsuen Wan Jewellery and Gold Ornament Quarter. The town has three public markets run by the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department: Tsuen Wan Market, Heung Che Street Market and Yeung Uk Road Market. The 50th anniversary in 2011 was marked on 16 September with fireworks over Rambler Channel sponsored by Yuen Yuen Institute.

Tsuen Wan New Town has no single centre: Tsuen Wan, Kwai Chung and Tsing Yi each have their own core, separated by hills and the Rambler Channel. The Tsuen Wan pedestrian footbridge network, completed in 2013, links the areas around Tsuen Wan and Tsuen Wan West stations. Red minibuses are banned on Tsing Yi Island, unlike in Tsuen Wan and Kwai Chung.

Although located in the New Territories, this area functions as part of Hong Kong's urban network without the green taxis typically found in other New Territories locations. This distinction reflects its status as a fully developed city district.
