It spans Tsuen Wan, Kwai Chung and the eastern part of Tsing Yi Island. Traditionally, the administrative officials of Tsuen Wan managed the area of Tsuen Wan proper, Kwai Chung, Tsing Yi Island, Ma Wan and Northeast Lantau Island. In 1982 the Tsuen Wan District was created under the District Administration Scheme. In 1985, with the explosion of population in the new town, the district was spun off from Kwai Chung and Tsing Yi to form the new Kwai Tsing District. Thus, the town is now under two administrative districts. Its total development area is about . The population of the new town is approximately 801,800 and reaches the planned capacity. Although Tsuen Wan New Town belongs to the New Territories, it is also considered a part of Hong Kong metro area, like Hong Kong Island and Kowloon.〔http://www.pland.gov.hk/pland_en/p_study/comp_s/hk2030/eng/finalreport/pdf/E_11.pdf〕 It is because the town was developed early and is not geographically separated from Kowloon by hills or mountains. Also, there are no New Territories taxis providing service in Tsuen Wan New Town except at Tsuen Wan Station and Tsing Yi Station, unlike other new towns in New Territories. In the latest official reports, Kwai Chung New Town and Tsing Yi New Town are separated from Tsuen Wan New Town.〔http://www.statistics.gov.hk/publication/stat_report/population/B1220001012006XXXXB0202.pdf〕 ==See also== *List of areas of Hong Kong 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tsuen Wan New Town」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
