Exploring Fung Shui Woods Shing Mun fung shui wood The 6-hectare
Shing Mun fung shui wood in Shing Mun Country Park is situated
on the northeastern side of the reservoir. One of the earliest
Sites of Special Scientific Interests in Hong Kong, it was
listed for preservation in 1975. You may wonder why the forest
is not sheltering any village. But it was, until 1929, when the
old hamlet of Tai Wai was relocated to make way for Shing Mun
Reservoir. Today only a fung shui wood remains to stand witness

further protected by the Country Park Ordinance, this pristine
forest excels in species richness, size and integrity. Indeed,
it is one of the most representative fung shui woods of Hong
Kong. Nam Fung Road fung shui wood The 4-hectare Nam Fung Road
