Yuen Long Park, Urban park in Yuen Long District, Hong Kong.
Yuen Long Park spans about 7.5 hectares and features a seven-level pagoda with an aviary, football pitches, and several plazas connected by walking paths through landscaped areas. The layout combines different recreational facilities to enable various activities in one location.
The site was originally a natural woodland at Shui Ngau Ling before the park opened to the public in October 1991. During development, many of the existing trees were preserved to respect the natural structure.
The park serves as a central gathering space where local residents come together for community events and practice traditional sports like gateball. People use this place regularly for social activities and to pursue their everyday hobbies.
The park is best explored on foot, with multiple paths leading through different areas so visitors can choose their own route. It is advisable to wear comfortable shoes and take time to explore the various activity zones.
The park contains Hong Kong's first gateball court within a Regional Council service area, with specialized facilities for this precision sport. Many visitors overlook this detail and do not realize what an important place this is for enthusiasts of this lesser-known game.
