Tai Tam Reservoir

The upper and byewash reservoirs are joinly known as Tai Tam Reservoir.

The planning of the reservoirs is known as Tai Tam Scheme which was started early in 1872 and was shelved 1874 because of economic depression. The scheme was continued later in 1882 and virtually completed in 1888. Yet again, the supply was proved insufficient and the building of the Tai Tam Tuk dam began in 1912. The four reservoirs have a total storage capacity of 6.2 million cubic metres.

The reservoirs are surrounded by Mount Butler (畢拿山), Jardines Lookout, Violet Hill and Mount Parker, with an extraordinary environment of peace and quiet.

Here are my photos taken from my hiking on the reservoir.

A Fugitive Escape in Sham Tseng

February is still winter in Hong Kong so it is still hiking season. On the 1st day of the month we went to hike in Sham Tseng… and like true fugitives we cut through yards, over fences, on roofs, through gravel roads, scramble in woods and cross creeks in an escape route to find safety and freedom.

Near the end of the trail was the spectacular view of the Tsing Ma and Ting Kau bridges from Ma Wan Channel. Here are the photos I collected from the hike.
