Siu Lek Yuen Road Playground, Recreation park and bowling facility in Sha Tin District, Hong Kong
Siu Lek Yuen Road Playground is a 3.4-hectare public recreation ground at 1 Siu Lek Yuen Road, on the west bank of the Siu Lek Yuen Nullah in Sha Tin. It runs between the nullah and Siu Lek Yuen Road, from Tai Chung Kiu Road to Sha Tin Wai Road, and holds two artificial-grass bowling greens, four tennis courts, four squash courts doubling as table-tennis rooms, a pebble walking path and three cycling areas.
Siu Lek Yuen Road Playground was completed in 1994 on 3.4 hectares of land between the Siu Lek Yuen channel and Siu Lek Yuen Road, in Sha Tin. It is managed by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department, which here opened its first venue with outdoor artificial-turf bowling greens.
The playground's two artificial-grass bowling greens, each with six lanes for up to eight players, were the first outdoor bowling greens run by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department. The site also has four squash courts doubling as table-tennis rooms, four tennis courts, and a pebble path.
The playground runs between the Siu Lek Yuen channel and Siu Lek Yuen Road, from Tai Chung Kiu Road to Sha Tin Wai Road, with Chap Wai Kon Street cutting across it. The bowling greens stand at the City One Sha Tin end. The whole site is smoke-free, and the nearest landmark is the Dorsett hotel by the channel.
The playground has dedicated zones for adventure cycling and children's cycling that go beyond typical sports activities. These areas make it a versatile spot for different age groups.
