About Chuk Yuen
Where to stay in Chuk Yuen
Where you base yourself shapes the visit — here's the character of each area.
Rooms are thin here. Chuk Yuen is estate ground, the name attaches to Chuk Yuen North Estate and Chuk Yuen South Estate, public blocks that stand inside Wong Tai Sin rather than in a hotel quarter, so most visitors book elsewhere in Hong Kong and ride out for a match or a family errand. Morse Park Sports Centre and Po Kong Village Road Sports Centre serve the estate blocks around them.
Choi Hung Road carries two more public halls.
About Chuk Yuen
What are the main landmarks in Chuk Yuen?
Sports halls do the landmark work. Morse Park Sports Centre and Po Kong Village Road Sports Centre stand closest to the Chuk Yuen estates, and Choi Hung Road Sports Centre and Choi Hung Road Badminton Centre take their names from the road that runs past them. Mission Road Ground gives the area its open pitch.
Further out sit Ngau Chi Wan Sports Centre, Kowloon Bay Sports Centre, Kai Tak East Sports Centre, and the Cornwall Street Squash and Table Tennis Centre, which between them cover most indoor games a visitor might want.
What is the history of Chuk Yuen?
Chuk Yuen began as a village. Written also as Chuk Un, it stood in New Kowloon, and the record of it is short, a village, then an area, and then the public housing that replaced both under the same name. Wong Tai Sin covers that ground.
Chuk Yuen North Estate and Chuk Yuen South Estate carry the old word forward.
Where is Chuk Yuen?
Chuk Yuen sits in New Kowloon, within Wong Tai Sin, on the ground the old Chuk Un village held before the estates covered it.
