Nga Tsin Wai Tsuen
Nga Tsin Wai Tsuen (, lit. "the walled village in front of the yamen"),〔(Welcome to 18 Districts - Wong Tai Sin District )〕 also known as Hing Yau Yu Tsuen (慶有餘村, lit. "overflowing prosperity")〔 is a walled village in Wong Tai Sin, New Kowloon, Hong Kong, China. It is the only walled village left in the urban built-up areas of Hong Kong.
==History==
According to a legend, members of the Ng, Chan and Lee Clans followed the fugitive Song Emperor and settled in Kowloon in around 1278.〔 The village was probably established by the Ng, Chan and Lee clans in the mid 14th century.〔(Legislative Council Nga Tsin Wai Village Project, 2007 )〕 They built a Tin Hau Temple around 1352 and the fortified village around 1724.〔
Nga Tsin Wai was the head village of the "Kowloon League of Seven", an inter-village union formed to guard against attacks from the pirates and bandits. Other villages of the League included the nearby Sha Po, Ta Kwu Leng, Shek Kwu Lung, Kak Hang, Tai Hom, Nga Tsin Long, Ma Tau Chung and Ma Tau Wai.〔 The Tin Hau Temple of Nga Tsin Wai Tsuen was the place of worship for the residents of the villages of the League.〔(J.W. HAYES "The Kwun Yam Tung Shan Temple of East Kowloon 1840-1940", ''Royal Asiatic Society Hong Kong Branch Journal'', Volume 23, 1983, p. 216 )〕
