New Town: Tai Po

      In 70S, population in Hong Kong has been increasing rapidly, and lands were too  limited for use, so Hong Kong Government  begun to plan and  develop New Towns.

 Most of New Towns located in New Territories, such as Sha Tin, Cheun Wan, and Tsuen Mun etc.  Tai Po, my home town, is one of the developed new town.  Here are some photos about my neighbourhood:
