TAI MO SHAN HIKE. HIGHEST PEAK IN HONGKONG.HOW TO GET HERE

Sunset at Tai Mo Shan Silvergrass at Tai Mo Shan Standing 957 metres, Tai Mo Shan is Hong Kong's highest peak. Enveloping this massif is 1,440 hectares of natural territory, designated as the Tai Mo Shan Country Park. Established in 1979, the park borders Tai Po Kau Nature Reserve in the east and Shing Mun Country Park in the south. To the west is Route Twisk and Tai Lam Country Park just beyond the highway. To the north is the old valley of Lam Tsuen. Dictated by rugged terrain, mainstream agriculture never really developed in Tai Mo Shan. Villagers cultivated rice and vegetables mainly for their own use. Tea farming, however, was a thriving industry. The region was once famous for a special variety of green tea. Tea terraces, arranged in chevrons, still mark the slopes today. They are remnants of tea plantations which flourished around these hills in the 17th Century. Tai Mo Shan Country Park Visitor Centre is situated on Tai Mo Shan Road, comprises an exhibition gallery and an activity room. The Exhibition Gallery is composed of six themes which introduce Tai Mo Shan Country Park, climate change in global and local perspectives, the effect of climate change in local forests, ecosystem and the effect of climate change at polar regions. The Centre is designed to provide a self-learning platform and foster public awareness of nature conservation and resources conservation. #hongkong #ofwhongkong #ofwhk #hklife #domestichelperinhongkong #dhlife #hikers #hongkongtour #cape
