Choi Yuen Estate (Chinese: 彩園邨) is a public housing estate in Sheung Shui, New Territories, Hong Kong, near Landmark North and MTR Sheung Shui station.
[3][4][5] It is the first public housing estate in North District and consists of six residential buildings completed between 1981 and 1983.
[4][5][6][7] The site of Choi Yuen Estate was formerly occupied by vegetable farms and the nearby village was called Tsoi Yuen Tsuen (Chinese: 菜園村), which meant Vegetable Farm Village in Chinese.
[8] In the 1970s, the vegetable farms were removed to construct Choi Yuen Estate; "菜園村" and "彩園邨" sound almost the same except the tone of the character "菜" / "彩".
Choi Yuen Estate and Choi Po Court are located in the Choi Yuen constituency, which is represented by Lam Tsz-king until July 2021,[9] while Yuk Po Court falls within the Shek Wu Hui constituency, which was formerly represented by Lam Cheuk-ting until March 2021.
