Hong Kong in 3/4, I have never seen you before you gamble

At the end of last month, "Hong Kong Le and Me" celebrated the 25th anniversary of the return of the motherland in Hong Kong. Lin Zixiang and Mao Yiyi "Under the Lion Mountain" suddenly brought people's thoughts to the streets and mountains and seas of Hong Kong.

Yeah, in the 1980s and 1990s, who did not listen to Hong Kong music, secretly bought tapes and CDs, and knew the city under the lion mountain -Hong Kong.

Because of the epidemic, we haven't set foot in Hong Kong for too long, but when the familiar Cantonese sounds, you can still re -put together Hong Kong's appearance from the fragments of Hong Kong: the prosperity of "Nathan Road", "The next stop of Heaven" There is also a song with Hong Kong's local characteristics of "Happy Post" and "Central" and "Golden Age", which gives us the initial imagination of Hong Kong.

Then, we might as well review the charming scenery of Hong Kong through Hong Kong.

Hong Kong under the Lion Rock Mountain

If there is any song that can best represent the "Hong Kong Spirit", then it must be "Under the Lion". When Huang Zhan filled out the lyrics of "life is rugged/difficult to worry about" in the same boat, it is "unavoidable in life/difficult to worry about/not only under the Lion Mountain and help the distinction between the same part", he must not think of it. It will become the spiritual symbol of Hong Kong people.

Lion Rock Mountain is really a mountain, 495 meters above sea level, shaped like a lion. It is located between the Great Wai of Kowloon Pond, Hong Kong and Shatian, New Territories. International metropolis. "Under the Lion Rock" is named here, and it is precisely because of the 1960s and 1970s that a group of ordinary Hong Kong citizens gathered under the New Territories and the Lion Rock in the north of Kowloon. Essence

It is rare to resonate with the city, but the Lion Mountain is OK. In the New Territories of Hong Kong and many places in Kowloon, you can see this mountain, but it is reported that you can see the true face of this "male lion" in the urban area of ​​Kowloon. To climb the Lion Rock, it is not as simple as imagined. The fifth paragraph of McLegomy, one of the "Top Ten Global Paths", is located here. In addition, Wei Yixin's Fifth Paragraph and Eagle Nest. Mountain natural education can be in close contact with this mountain. There are still many pedestrians in the country park of Lion Rock. For them, there is a Lion Mountain, and the spirit of Hong Kong is there.

Yang Qianyi's "Fen Li Road" is leading to another mountain -the top of Taiping Mountain. Fen Lidao is a road leading to the landscape of Taiping Mountain. Tourists often use the night view of Taiping Mountain as the last stop of Hong Kong.

Yeah, who can refuse the charming night view of Taiping Mountain: take the cable car and stand at the highest point of Hong Kong Island at an altitude of 552 meters. The lives of more than 7 million Hong Kong residents are rolling in front of them. The surface of Victoria Harbor was purple. If the Lion Rock represents the "Hong Kong Spirit", then the top of Taiping Mountain is a brilliant testimony of "Pearl of the East".

Liang Yongqi's "Miss Saigon" described us on another side of Hong Kong- "I always want to say goodbye to busy streets/Iron and Steel cold this jungle downtown/love to wash lead/ Home watching the sunset/and trees. "In Saigon, Hong Kong, you can really say goodbye to the bustling city.

Saigon, known as the "back garden of Hong Kong people", is located in the northeast of Hong Kong. If the map is spread out, you will be surprised to find that Saigon is larger than Hong Kong Island. It consists of more than 70 islands of different sizes. The Neishanling is vertical and horizontal, and the jungle is everywhere, as if entering another world.

The best way to travel to Si Gun is to jump the island from one island to another. String strolls on the streets of the island and eat fresh fishing seafood. critical."

Regarding the charming scenery of the New Territories and Outdency, Hong Kong people never described the pen and ink in the song. The niche band SHINE wrote in "Tung Chung Ri": "Dongyong scenery can still be unique/continued every minute." Hong Kong Tung Chung is located in the north of Lantau Island, belongs to the outlying island area, adjacent to the Hong Kong International Airport and the Hong Kong International Airport and Hong Kong -Zhuhai -Macao Bridge Hong Kong Port, both "transportation hubs" and "beautiful scenery" are available.

Cai Guoquan also wrote the scenery of "walking from Fanling to Shi'ao/I alone" with a song "Walking by Hand". It seems that the most treasured landscape of Hong Kong people has been written in the song.

3/4 Hong Kong has nothing to do with the city

Perhaps because of TV propaganda, or maybe the lights on both sides of the Victoria Harbor are too dazzling. When mentioning Hong Kong, people always unconsciously have a relationship with the words "shopping paradise", "international metropolis" and "skyscrapers". But in fact, 3/4 Hong Kong has nothing to do with these.

What you see in front of you, the bustling city and car are only 1/4 of Hong Kong's area, and 3/4 of Hong Kong is an endless countryside.

△ There are 3/4 in Hong Kong are endless countryside / picture insects

Natural observation writer Liu Kexiang once put forward a point in "Three -quarters of Hong Kong": "Although it is said that the nature of the subtropical forest in Hong Kong can't go back, the large mountains still have a gloomy natural appearance, retaining nearly 75%of nearly 75% The countryside is far from the forest of the tight cement building. A high -density international city coexists or tension with nature in harmony with nature. This is the most classic case. " The aesthetics that I have never seen is called "Southern Ecological Aesthetics". The hidden version of this aesthetics is more interesting than the shopping paradise.

Yes, Hong Kong's population density is high, never because of less land, but there are many mountains. Hong Kong is originally a mountainous place from the sea, which is integrated with South China hills. 60%of the land area belongs to natural hillside. The mountains are northeast-southwest. It is the Da Mao Mountain at an altitude of 958 meters or a Phoenix Mountain at an altitude of 934 meters.

There are 263 islands in Hong Kong, which can be divided into four parts: Hong Kong Island, Kowloon Peninsula, New Territories and Outdania. Hong Kong Island is the "Hong Kong" referred to in the traditional sense. Mountains, Longhu Mountain, Laoshan, Baijiashan, and Mo Xingling are all located in it, adjacent to cities such as Central and Wan Chai, not to mention the other three parts. There are many uninhabited multi -mountain islands.

Therefore, you will see such a wonderful scene: Hong Kong is obviously an international metropolis, but the place where this inch of earth is gold is made of ocean, shallow beach, Maolin, and mountains. Stack.

From the bustling Central in Central, you can go to the Taiping Mountains when you get on the cable car. Don't talk about China, which is close to the landscape, it is difficult to find the world.

Hong Kong regards this ecology as a "treasure" and prefers 75%of the land as the countryside for tourists to enjoy music. In 1976, the "Regulations on the Country Park" was promulgated to provide a legal basis for conservation of the natural ecology. In the same year, the first batch of country parks were completed, located in the gate, Jinshan and Lion Mountain. You have to lament that Hong Kong's eyes are far away. To this day, in the land of Hong Kong, there are 24 country parks and more than 100 mountain trails, ranking "Asia's first".

Old artists always believe that Hong Kong is the most ignored worldwide best mountain resort, none of them. Many mountain trails have won international honors. For example, Hong Kong Island Dragon Ridge is rated as "the best mountain trail in Asian cities" by Times Weekly; The 10th place in the mountain trail and the first place in Asia "; McLeho is rated as" one of the 20 best mountain trails in the world "by" National Geographical Magazine "...

Long Ridie Trail, entangled in Shiao, Hong Kong Island, not far from the urban area. From the Land Bay to the crushing of the Tungshan Mountain to Dalang Bay. A lot of mountains and sea views, charming to the extreme, even Hong Kong citizens can't help but attach Tips: "This mountain path is the easiest to meet my brother."

In recent years, due to the epidemic, Hong Kong people have returned to the countryside. In 2021, more than 12.4 million tourists went to the country park. Fortunately, in the face of the epidemic, Hong Kong people could still retain such a wild interest.

The ecology of the Greater Bay Area, "wild" heart

The precedent for co -construction in the countryside and the countryside, let us see the ecological blueprint of the Greater Bay Area in the future. Writer Liu Kexiang said after visiting three -quarters of Hong Kong: "In fact, the relationship between man and nature is very close. You think you live in the metropolis, but it is not. It can be flying in the sky in which city. of."

Hong Kong's "wild" heart is not only there.

At the end of 2021, Hong Kong issued the "Development Strategy in the Northern Metropolitan Area", proposed to build a metropolitan area for the construction of northern Hong Kong to become livable and suitable for tourism, and create a unique metropolitan landscape of "combining, development and conservation in cities and rural areas."

Hong Kong's "northern metropolitan area" is another "forgotten huge natural treasure house". It is located in the northernmost part of Hong Kong and is only separated from Shenzhen, including Yuen Long District and North District, with an area of ​​300 square kilometers, equivalent to 3.8 Hong Kong Island and 6.7 Kowloon. Suburban special area.

The "Northern Metropolitan Area" has a very rich and diverse ecological environment. There are large area of ​​freshwater/saltwater wetland, fish ponds, swamps, reed forests and mangroves in the west, mangroves, wetlands and wetlands and wetlands and Mipu. The fish pond is an important international wetland designated by the Ramsar Convention. In addition, the district is one of the most abundant wetlands in Asian biological diversity. It is a place where there are many species of living, and it is also an important transit station for migrant migratory birds.

If the landform of a super -large city in China is similar to Hong Kong, then it must be Shenzhen. Shenzhen Yishan, and the mountains of the New Territories of Hong Kong are one of the cities that are most likely to develop into the "mountains and sea metropolis".

Nan Zhaoxu, a local writer who has long been committed to studying Shenzhen's ecological culture for a long time, also wrote in the "Shenzhen Nature Notes": "In the four first -tier cities in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, Shenzhen is the only city, mountains, streams, lakes, forests, fields, and fields. , Ancient Village, Ocean, Islands and the most beautiful coastal cities in China. "△ Shenzhen is also connected to the mountains and sea/ pictureworm

As early as the 1990s, Shenzhen had the idea of ​​setting up the country park with Hong Kong as a sample. In 2002, the "Shenzhen Country Park Plan" was compiled to plan and build 21 country parks. The Shenzhen Coast Line is 260.5 kilometers. Dapeng Peninsula and East and Xiyong are both the "back garden" of Shenzhen people. At the same time, Shenzhen is also the largest first -tier city in Chinese parks. It has 1,238 parks ...

In terms of wetland, the mangroves of Shenzhen Bay are the only national nature reserves in the hinterland of urban areas in the country. 100,000 migratory birds are resting here each year.

The northwest of the "northern metropolitan area" in Hong Kong is on the verge of Shenzhen Bay. People living in Shenzhen and Hong Kong are undoubtedly happy. Sal International's important wetland is neighbor.

Based on this, the "Development Strategy in the Northern Metropolitan District" also proposed to create a "dual city and three laps", of which "Shuangcheng" refers to Shenzhen and Hong Kong, and the "three laps" are the high -quality development circle of Shenzhen Bay and the Hong Kong -Shenzhen -Shenzhen and close interactive circle, respectively. And Dapeng Bay/Yinzhoutang Ecological Kangle Tourism Circle.

In terms of ecology, Shenzhen and Hong Kong are undoubtedly a pair of "Brother" that they advance together, and jointly embellish the same mountains connected by the Greater Bay Area.
