Some information of " Amah Rock " ( Mong Fu Shek ) --

Located in the entrence to the Lion Rock Tunnwl within
Lion Rock Country Park .
Its a naturally occurring rock stand on the hilltop of
" Lion Rock Hill " , the whole Sha Tin District can be seen from there.
its shape looks like a woman carrying a baby on her back.



According to the legend, the wife of a fisherman
carry her son on her back and climbed to the hills every day,
to wait for the return of her husband,
Day by day , however not knowing his husband
had drowned at sea.
she was turned into a rock by the Goddess of the Sea
As a reward for her faithfulness,
so that her spirit could unite with her husband.
