Jardine’s Lookout
Perched high on the northern slope of Hong Kong island, just north of Happy Valley with views of surrounding greenery and Victoria Harbour, Jardine’s Lookout is a calm, picturesque residential area perfectly positioned above Happy Valley and favored by both local and expatriate residents. This coveted enclave has wide, tree-lined avenues offering a mix of large homes with impressive square footage and private gardens, as well as low-rise apartment blocks and tall, glamorous apartment complexes with luxurious facilities.
Jardine’s Lookout is slightly more understated than the nearby Peak, yet equally renowned given the number of local celebrities and public figures calling this area home. Long-established local and international schools including Chinese, French, and Japanese schools are located here, making Jardine’s Lookout an ideal neighborhood for families.
Although Jardine’s Lookout is slightly farther up the mountain from the city life below, it offers convenient amenities nearby with a variety of recreational areas and private clubs such as the Hong Kong Jockey Club and Hong Kong Cricket Club. Public transportation is also easily accessible via a network of shuttle buses running frequently up and down the hillside. Nature watching and hiking enthusiasts will also find this to be an excellent location with convenient access to the Wong Nai Chung Reservoir Park. Neighboring Happy Valley and trendy Tai Hang are also a short distance away offering an eclectic assortment of restaurants, bars and quiet lounges ideal for a night out that is still close to home.
