Lion Rock, or less formally Lion Rock Hill, is a mountain in Hong Kong. It is located between Kowloon Tong of Kowloon and Tai Wai of the New Territories, and is 495 metres high. The peak consists of granite covered sparsely by shrubs.Lion Rock is noted for its shape: its resemblance to a crouching lion is most striking from the Choi Hung and San Po Kong areas in East Kowloon. A trail winds its way up the forested hillside to the top, culminating atop the "lion's head". The trail can be followed across the profile of the lion, eventually linking up with the MacLehose Trail. The rock provides a view of the city and Hong Kong Island in the distance. The entire mountain is located within Lion Rock Country Park in Hung Mui Kuk, Tai Wai and is made passable by vehicles by Lion Rock Tunnel, which connects Kowloon Tong and Tai Wai.Lion Rock is near another famous rock structure, the Amah Rock. A road in Kowloon City is named Lion Rock Road (獅子石道).Lion Rock is just one of the many highlights you can arrange to see using our international travel planner, Hong Kong Edition.

在慈雲山後山,市區的遠足路線,基本上很多地方都是水泥路,適合一家大細去行,然後有分段路線上獅子山或者往沙田,獅子山路線不是一般初級遠者可以行,有要裝備及經驗,能成功上到頂,景觀真的太美麗. 另一條去沙田路絡,相對容易行,景觀也不錯,合家觀可以行這條路絡.在起點前有一間餐廳,可以食山水豆腐花,非常美味. more »

Where to stay in Hong Kong
Head to Tsim Sha Tsui for the main tourist section of Hong Kong, where it's easy to find reasonably priced accommodations to suit your particular requirements, with more expensive hotels closer to the water and side streets offering budget hostels. You can also consider Hong Kong Island, which offers easy links to the mainland via its ferry and train lines. Chain hotels sit in the northern section of the island, where luxury and budget options remain available.
