A Tour through Cha Kwo Ling Village
消逝中的城中村:走一走茶果嶺村
聽到茶果嶺,你會想起什麼呢?或許是一個未曾聽聞的地方;又或許,是雖然聽說過但因位置偏僻而從未踏足。

茶果嶺曾經是九龍東最先發展起來的村落,自清代已是官家打石場。除了豐盛的石礦產出,這裡還有瓷泥廠,出口到海外;還有享負盛名的天后誕與「龍王」龍船,也有馴獸師曾居此地,真正試過「熊出沒注意」,奇幻有趣⋯⋯可是,茶果嶺村將於2025年被清拆,一景一物承載的鮮活歷史將會否被人憶記?

但願是次旅程,我們一起走過茶果嶺村,親身感受村子尚存的歲月好年華。

Step back in time and immerse yourself in the captivating history of Cha Kwo Ling Village, once the earliest developed village in East Kowloon. Dating back to the Qing Dynasty, this village was renowned for its official stone quarry, as well as its thriving porcelain clay factory that exported products worldwide. The village was also celebrated for its colourful Tin Hau Festival and the legendary dragon boat, and even housed animal trainers, further contributing to its unique charm.

As Cha Kwo Ling Village faces demolition in 2025, its rich historical legacy is at risk. Join us on this journey as we walk together through Cha Kwo Ling Village, cherishing its glorious past and creating lasting memories of this historical gem.
