Shing Mun Redoubt - Hong Kong - How to get there?
 
I am a big WWII buff and would love to see the Shing Mun redoubt in Hong Kong. (Along with the monkeys). I believe it is in the Shing Mun Country Park. But I cannot seem to find any info on how to get there though. Can anybody help? And thank you in advance rkkwan.

Look here

this site will give you the mini bus number to grab at the Tseun Wan MTR station.

Shing Mun Redoubt is in the Kam Shan Country Park, not Shing Mun. Bus 72 goes over the old Tai Po highway and has a stop at Shek Lei Pun Reservoir for access.

Sorry for typo. Bus stop is Shek Lei Pui Reservoir. There are probably also red vans. And taxis from Mong Kok, Prince Edward or Sham Shui Po shouldn't cost much either.

Come to think of it, the redoubt is indeed closer to Shing Mun Reservoir, so easier to take the minibus from Tsuen Wan, as suggested by jobin. You can consider going south and exit through Tai Po Highway if desired.
