山水迷人流水響 Charming Lau Shui Heung

悠悠山水影,潺潺流水聲。

位於八仙嶺郊野公園的流水響水塘,屬小型灌溉水塘,塘內的水用作灌溉附近農地。如果天氣好,大部分時間其塘面波平如鏡,可以見整個山林既倒影,亦因此被喻為香港版「天空之鏡」。

水塘有多種特色樹木,對岸後面栽種了白千層,前排是落羽松。要體驗流水潺潺的聲響,只會在流水橋和龍山橋附近才能聽到。

The Lau Shui Heung Reservoir in Pat Sin Leng Country Park is a small irrigation reservoir. The water is used to irrigate nearby farmland.  If the weather is good, most of the time the surface of the reservoir is calm like a mirror, and you can see the reflection of the entire mountain and forest, and it is called the Hong Kong version of the “mirror of the sky”.

There are a variety of special trees at the reservoir, with Melaleuca planted behind the opposite bank, and pine trees in front. To experience the gurgling sound of flowing water, you can only hear it near Lau Shui Bridge and Lung Shan Bridge.
