Ma Wan Park is a park on Ma Wan island, New Territories, Hong Kong. It is operated by Sun Hung Kai Properties with investment from the Hong Kong Government. Ma Wan Island is connected to Tsing Yi Island by the Tsing Ma Bridge.
The park is billed as a tourist attraction and education centre that combines nature, learning, arts and love, with an emphasis on outdoor interactive instruction. It adjoins the Park Island apartment complex, mainly developed by Sun Hung Kai Properties as part of the Ma Wan Development joint venture project.[1]
Admission to the Nature Garden is restricted for some schedule, else the entrance is free. Bookings are required for group visits. Exploration activities are available from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm on Mondays, Fridays and Saturdays. Registration is required and there is an admission fee.[citation needed]
