Kau Shat Wan
Kau
Shat
Wan
was
a bay
located between
Discovery Bay
and
Mui Wo
on
Lantau Island
,
New Territories, Hong Kong
. In
the 1990s
, the
Hong Kong Government
decided
to
reclaim
the
bay
to construct a
Government
explosives
depot and
replace
the one on
Stonecutters Island
. The depot started
operation
in
1997
.
An
automatic
irrigation system
run by
solar power
was tried out on a
vegetated
slope
at Kau Shat Wan. The
dismantled
components
of
Queen's Pier
are now also
stored
in there.
