In this piece of record, it is the location of Ngau Chi Wan Village (牛池灣鄉) between Choi Hung Road (彩虹道) and Lung Chi Path (龍池徑), and behind Ngau Chi Wan Fire Station. In this small district, there are several alleys, called Kam Chi Path (金池徑), Wah Chi Path (華池徑), Ngan Chi Path (銀池徑), Wing Chi Path (榮池徑), Kwai Chi Path (貴池徑) and Fu Chi Path (富池徑). This area is mainly composed of two-storey constructions. But there are always illegal constructions on the roof, in order to increase the usable area. It is now a market of food, like meat and vegetable, and daily accessories. Quite a lot of shops here are eateries too.
Illegal constructions are clearly found on the roof.
This area is still hygienic on the day of our visit.
Since selling price of most stuffs are quite reasonable, this attracts the customers from nearby areas.
