Festive lighting for Tsuen Wan
Tsuen Wan district will take on a festive look when it is lit up with Christmas and New Year lighting today (Friday).
Speaking at the switching-on ceremony, the Director of Homes Affairs, Mr Joseph Wong, said the illuminations would not only add to the festive atmosphere of the joyful seasons, but also promote local organisations' and residents' sense of belonging to the district.
The glittering colour will be focused around the Tsuen Wan Mass Transit Railway station, the Tsuen Wan Plaza, and a section of Sha Tsui Road between Tai Ho Road and Ham Tin Road.
Costing over $1 million, the lighting projects are jointly sponsored by the Tsuen Wan District Board, the Regional Council and local commercial organisations.
There will also be a photo contest on the festive lighting. The deadline for enrolment is on December 29.
Application forms and leaflets on the contest can be obtained from Tsuen Wan District Office.
