Kai Shan (Chinese: 髻山) is a hill in Wang Chau, in the New Territories of Hong Kong, separating the new towns of Yuen Long and Tin Shui Wai. It has a height of 121 metres (397 ft).[1]

Kai Shan is a private property and is owned by the Tang clan. According to reports, the hill is burned regularly to keep the vegetation low.[2]

It has a popular neighborhood trail where locals have planted flowers and created art, the top of which has exceptional views of both Yuen Long and Shenzhen.[3]
