Imagine the Ming and Qing dynasties. This hill was a strategic point. Soldiers kept watch from its heights. They guarded against invaders and pirates. They protected the coastal villages. The cannons of Tung Chung Fort boomed in the distance a testament to this era’s unrest.
The development of Tung Chung changed the landscape. Kai Tsai Tung remained. A constant against the tide of progress. It now offers a different kind of vantage point.
