Serenity, Simians and Singhas
Only 15 minutes from the bustling shopping malls and street markets of Mongkok, the Kowloon reservoirs provide a gate to quite a different
world. A world of serenity and scenic beauty. A world where birds are singing, cattle roam free and the only hustling is that being done by
monkeys. Rhesus Macaques have slowly recolonized this part of Hong Kong over the past 60 years or so...
Our gate to this lush world of tall trees and flittering butterflies is the dam of the Kowloon Reservoir. Completed in 1910 and of a unique
curved design, this was the first reservoir in the New Territories supplying drinking water to the ever expanding towns of northern Kowloon.
