Wong Chuk Hang San Wai
Wong Chuk Hang San Wai (Chinese: 黃竹坑新圍; lit. "Wong Chuk Hang new village") is a small village in the Wong Chuk Hang area of Hong Kong's Southern District. It lies at the foot of Shouson Hill. For elections, it is part of the Bays Area constituency and is represented by Jonathan Leung Chun.
The village was created in the 1860s–1870s as the nearby Wong Chuk Hang Kau Wai (the old village) grew. Wong Chuk Hang Kau Wai began in the 18th century, founded by the Chow clan from Guangdong. Sir Shouson Chow is said to have been born in Wong Chuk Hang San Wai in 1861. The old village appears on the 1866 map as Heung-kong-wai. Much of Wong Chuk Hang San Wai was demolished to make way for the Aberdeen Tunnel. In the 1911 census, Wong Chuk Hang had 57 residents, of whom 44 were male.
