Shun Tak Kui, Grade I historic house in Shung Ching San Tsuen, Hong Kong.

Shun Tak Kui is a Grade I historic residence in Yuen Long District featuring traditional Chinese architecture with wooden structural elements and tiled roofing. The building displays characteristic window arrangements and interior spatial organization typical of its era.

The house was built in 1936 during a period when Chinese traditional construction techniques merged with local methods in Hong Kong. This era represented a transitional moment in residential building that preserved classical craftsmanship.

The name carries philosophical meaning rooted in Chinese virtues of prudence and integrity, a naming tradition that shaped how residents thought about their homes.

The site is located in Yuen Long District and is accessible by public transportation including bus routes and local minibus services. Nearby facilities provide convenient access for those visiting the area.
