Over Christmas and New Year’s we explored the Pok Fu Lam Conduit and found 16 of the original 32 aqueducts still largely intact bridging over ravines and gorges. The original granite covers are still in place for many sections of the conduit. We have made submissions to the Antiquities Advisory Board seeking grading and designation as a heritage structure. You can reach the conduit from four entry points: The small set of steps next to 138 Pok Fu Lam Road where redevelopment of a property is in progress; By going up next to Royalton at 118 Pok Fu Lam Road; By going up the stairs just north of Queen Mary Hospital from where you walk all the way to Kotewall and Conduit Road; Or by descending the stairs next to the Lung Fu Shan Environmental Education Centre at Kotewall Road.

我們於聖誕及新年期間考察薄扶林的引水道 ,發現建於1876年至1877年的32條引水道仍然有16條維持完整面貌。我們已去信古物諮詢委員會,要求為這些管道進行評級並列為歷史建築物。你可以由以下四個位置前往參觀這些百年引水道:138號薄扶林道重建項目旁邊的樓梯、118號豪峰旁邊的小路、瑪麗醫院以北通往旭龢道及干德道的樓梯或龍虎山環境教育中心旁邊的樓梯。
