Happy Valley

This part of town is famous for the Happy Valley Racetrack and indeed, many properties have splendid views of the racecourse. It's a mixed bag of older style low rise buildings and modern high rise residences and short term serviced apartments and is mostly a residential area.

Causeway Bay is very near indeed, with its myriad of shopping malls and night time entertainment areas. Members of the Hong Kong Jockey Clubhouse can enjoy its exclusive facilities nearby. More recently, Happy Valley has become much more upmarket with a good number of expatriates present. You may also see the occasional television crew, as many Hong Kong television programmes are filmed here.

The real estate prices in Happy Valley tend to influence the housing market in the rest of the city.
