Choi Sai Woo Park
Choi Sai Woo Park () is a park located near the top of Braemar Hill at Braemar Hill Road, Hong Kong. The park serves as a social hub for the neighbourhood.
==History==
The park was named after the Choi Sai Woo Reservoir, which was formerly located in the park. According to the commemorative plaque in the park, the reservoir was built by Taikoo Sugar Company Limited in 1894; it was the largest and the last of the five private reservoirs built by the company. During the drought and bubonic plague outbreak that started in 1894, the reservoir once supplied water to Tai Ping Shan District. It was filled in by Li Ka Shing to create the current park site. In World War II it was the scene of bitter fighting as the Japanese advanced to split the defence of Hong Kong into two: East and West.
The park was built at a cost of $9.5 million and opened by the Urban Council in August 1986. It was designed to retain most of the existing mature trees and shrubs on site.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Urban Council.
