Rugged Hills,
About one quarter of the area of the New Territories consists of islands. The land as a whole is rugged and an outstanding feature is the range of mountains running along the coast line from east to west, one large spur of which forms the island of the Lan Tao and the smaller islands which surround it. In a country of this kind the area available for cultivation is small,
ver only about one-sixth and when the Territories were taken found to be private landa.
