Built in 1981, the Hill Road flyover in Shek Tong Tsui was constructed along the slope of the Hill Road. The pillars are particularly long and are about four to five storeys high. It is the tallest flyover in the urban area of Hong Kong. In recent years, the government has added colourful murals to decorate the columns and stairs.

Attraction 4
Pinewood Battery

The Pinewood Battery was built in 1905 during the British colonial period. The fort with an altitude of 307 metres strengthened the defence of the western part of Hong Kong Island. It was until the Japanese army captured Hong Kong in 1941 that the fort was abandoned due to heavy air strikes. The site is now listed as a Grade II historic building in Hong Kong. The relics of Pinewood Battery provide perfect setting for a journey back in time. (Source: Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department)
