Where to stay in Ho Sheung Heung
Where the beds are, and what that means for the visit.
Sleeping is done in Sheung Shui. Ho Sheung Heung holds lanes and open ground where a town would keep hotel blocks, so most visitors take a room in the Sheung Shui town centre and ride out to the area for the day. Lung Sum Avenue marks its civic and sporting edge.
The real depth of rooms sits far south, in Kowloon and on Hong Kong Island.

About Ho Sheung Heung

What is the history of Ho Sheung Heung?
Founding dates pass this area by. What the record holds is a placement rather than a chronicle: an area of Sheung Shui, sitting inside the North District, one of the administrative units Hong Kong lays across the New Territories. Civic building went to the Sheung Shui side, where the Lung Sum Avenue Sports Centre stands, while Ho Sheung Heung stayed a named area rather than a centre in its own right.
The name outlasted the boundaries drawn around it.
Where is Ho Sheung Heung?
