Lai Chi Kok

Lai Chi Kok is a neighbourhood in Kowloon, Hong Kong, east of Kwai Chung and west of Cheung Sha Wan.[1][2] Xin an county gazette (新安縣志), published in AD 1819, did not have any description of Lai chi kok, therefore, we did not have detail information of earlier history of the region.Lai Chi Kok literally means "lychee corner", referring to a seashore named after a type of fruit tree native to southern China.However, some historians such as Leung Ping Wah suggested the original name of the region was Lai Tsai Kuok (孺仔脚), literally mean the footprint of the youngest son.The headquarters of the Kowloon Motor Bus was also in Lai Chi Kok, before being relocated; the site has since been replaced by a private housing project called Manhattan Hill.
