Bowen Road

Bowen Road is a walking trail located in the mid levels close by our apt. It's full of runners and dog walkers, mostly surrounded by luscious greens and provides a great view of Central and stretches all the way to Happy Valley. I wouldn't say it's comparable to Central Park but it does provide some stunning views for people who enjoys being away from the city and taking a breath of fresh air.


We are very lucky to live so close to the trail. Bowen Drive is a short little uphill hike to Bowen Road.


One complete trail is 4Km. We start from Bowen Drive, instead of from the beginning of the trail. It's around 6Km round trip round trip for us. Takes me about 40 mins to complete the trip.


Some of the richest people live next to the trail, including the most popular Fung Shui master in HK. Fung Shui is big business here! People go to FS masters for predictions on careers and relationships.


A park along the trail with restrooms in case nature calls.




Our apt. building.




Lovers rock. Couples come here to pray for a good strong relationship with their significant other.


On the weekend, you could run into people praying here. Breathing in incense gives me a runner's high :)


I think this is the HK Jockey Club at the bottom.


End of the trail and time to turn back.
