Kai Shan (Chinese: 髻山) is a hill in Wang Chau, in the New Territories of Hong Kong, separating the new towns of Yuen Long and Tin Shui Wai. It has a height of 121 metres (397 ft).^[1]

Kai Shan is a private property and is owned by the Tang clan. According to reports, the hill is burned regularly to keep the vegetation low.^[2]

It has a popular neighborhood trail where locals have planted flowers and created art, the top of which has exceptional views of both Yuen Long and Shenzhen.^[3]

Getting to the trail is super easy by walking from Tin Shui Wai MTR Station. One of the most unique aspects of the hike is the views of the fish farms with the Shenzhen Skyline in the backdrop. ^[4]
