We like visiting Ma On Shan Park. This is a nice stretch of green space located between the Ma On Shan Plaza shopping centre and Ma On Shan Promenade which runs along Tolo Harbour. Here you will find a fair sized park with leisure and recreation space for local residents and anyone planning to spend time in this area of Hong Kong.
The park features the expected children's playground areas, exercise stations, walking trails, green grass for picnics, landscaping and small section of wooded area. You will also find a walled shrub labyrinth, a seaside building and blue sail structure (supposed to resemble a sailboat) facing the harbour. There is also a section dedicated to the old iron ore mines which formerly operated upon the mountain south of the skyscrapers in Ma On Shan.
There are plenty of park benches, a few picnic tables and two public bathrooms. You'll find direct access to the Ma On Shan public library, sports centre and swimming pool as well as an overpass bridge linking the park to the MTR Station by way of the Ma On Shan Plaza.
In the end, it is nice little park if you in the Ma On Shan area. If you fancy more rural outdoor opportunities, you can proceed northeast to the Ma On Shan Country Park for popular hiking spots. Alternatively, go further out to Sai Kung for more country parks, beach hopping and hiking...

Read moreIncredible how it is possible that I've been working in the area for 2 year and I've been to this park for the first time today. Such a lovely park! It's pretty big, a lot of nature, space for children and perfect spot to walk your dog. Not really crowded and there is also a small beach. I really enjoyed my time here. I only went for a walk but I imagine how good it would be have a pic Nic at the small pier or read a book under a tree or on a bench in front of the sea! Definitely a place to go if you're looking...
