Island Road

Island Road (Chinese: 香島道) is a road in the Southern District of Hong Kong, facing Deep Water Bay and the South China Sea.

It links Wong Chuk Hang with Repulse Bay and Stanley.

[1] Island Road has existed before the Colonial era, existing before the year 1840 as a major trail towards the south of the island, extending from Shau Kei Wan to Stanley to Aberdeen.

[2] The road later caused problems for mailing due to its great length, and in 1961 was split into eight sections which still exist today.
