Sau Mau Ping

Sau Mau Ping (Chinese: 秀茂坪; Jyutping: Sau3 Mau6 Ping4; pinyin: Xiù Mào Píng) is an area part of Kwun Tong District, in eastern Kowloon, Hong Kong.

The Chinese name was considered inappropriate for a residential area and so it was changed to the current one, meaning "nice and prosperous".

In August 1976, eighteen people were killed in one landslip in Sau Mau Ping, as a consequence of tropical storm Ellen.

[1] Sau Mau Ping was part of the early Kwun Tong satellite city in Hong Kong.

The United Christian Hospital, serving all of eastern Kowloon, is located in Sau Mau Ping.
