About

Amah Rock resembles a woman carrying a baby on her back. According to local legend, the woman was a fisherman's wife who was standing at that spot waiting for her husband to return from the sea. Sadly, her husband never returned and the gods took pity on her and turned her into stone, immortalizing her love. The Cantonese for Amah Rock is Mong Fu Shek, which means "the stone that is gazing out for her husband". Amah Rock is easily visible to the east of the railway as the KCR train travels between Shatin and Tai Wai.
