Liantang / Heung Yuen Wai is the seventh land border-crossing point between Hong Kong and Shenzhen. Adjacent to Pak Fu Shan and situated between Man Kam To and Sha Tau Kok, the area is the northernmost part of Hong Kong. Its construction began in 2013 and is eventually completed in 2020. Heung Yuen Wai is the village on Hong Kong side whereas Liantang is on the other side in Shenzhen. It is said that people of the two areas often fight against each other in competing for resources in the past.
