Garden Hill (Chinese: 喃嘸山; Cantonese Yale: nàahm mòuh shāan; or 嘉頓山; gā déun shāan) is a 300-foot-tall (90.6-metre) hill in the Sham Shui Po District in northwestern Kowloon, Hong Kong,[1][2][3] near Un Chau [yue], Om Yau and Pak Tin. Its summit is a popular place among photographers for its views of urban Hong Kong. One entrance to the trail leading to the summit can be found next to Grade II historic building Mei Ho House.

Name

The hill's name comes from the nearby former headquarters of the Garden Company, known locally for its cookies and bakery products.[4]
