Tseung Kwan O was initially referred as Junk Bay. However, there are many interesting places that we certainly can treasure and enjoy. For example, the stylish Hong Kong Velodrome along with the nearby park and Tseung Kwan O Sports Ground definitely worth a visit. Check it out!

The Hong Kong government agreed to build the velodrome after Wong Kam-po won the gold medal for the men's road race in the 2006 Asian Games at Doha, amid concerns that athletes who represent Hong Kong had to rely on training facilities in China. Construction of the HK$1.1 billion venue got the legislative go-ahead in January 2010 and work began two months later.

Occupying an area of 5.3 hectares, the adjoining park is heavily landscaped and includes an amphitheatre, a skatepark, a jogging track, a sport climbing wall, a central lawn, children's play area, a fitness corner for the elderly, artificial lakes and a model boat pool.

The park offers both active and passive facilities. Besides an open-air amphitheatre, the park contains about 1 200 trees including Terminalia mantaly, Bauhinia variegate and Cinnamomum camphora. Under the shade of these green trees, visitors will have the chance to embark on an exciting adventure.The skatepark area is specifically designed for skateboarding and aggressive inline skating with three half-pipes and bowls of varying levels of steepness and difficulty, where extreme-sports thrill seekers can showcase their talents.  Visitors can also work their muscles on the jogging track with its fitness training facilities, or try their hands on the sport climbing wall nearby.

If they are tired after the workout, visitors can relax on the central lawn, which provides massive green open space for people to freely tread on, stroll, lie down or engage in other leisure activities. On one side of the lawn is a children's play area with slides and inclusive play equipment. On the other side of the lawn is a fitness corner for the elderly, where they can also enjoy a game of chess with friends on the chess tables nearby.Across the central lawn are artificial lakes that successfully blend in with the curvilinear shape of the velodrome building. In addition, there is also a 40-centimetre-deep model boat pool where people can indulge in model boating.

Park facilities such as the lawn terrace, central lawn, children's play area, and fitness corner for the elderly are open 24 hours.

Tseung Kwan O Sports Ground is situated at 109 Po Hong Road, Tseung Kwan O, covering an area of about 6 hectares. Construction works of the sports ground commenced in April 2006 and completed in March 2009. The whole project costs about 4 billion Hong Kong dollars. The major facilities of the sports ground include a main sports ground with a fixed spectator stand, a secondary sports ground and other facilities essential for track and field activities and events. The facilities are designed and constructed in accordance with the standards set by the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) and suitable for holding athletic training and international track and field events. The track and field events of the 5th East Asian Games have been held in this venue in December 2009.
