How it's used
Castle Peak Road is one of the longest roads in Hong Kong, stretching across several districts in the New Territories and Kowloon. Because it covers such a vast area, locals often specify the district, such as Cheung Sha Wan or Tsuen Wan, when referring to a specific section. It is historically significant as one of the earliest roads built to connect the urban areas to the rural New Territories.
