San Tin
San Tin: The Innovation Hub of the Northern Metropolis
More than rural land
For many years, San Tin was known for its agricultural land, fish ponds and rural villages. Today, it is at the centre of one of Hong Kong's most significant long-term development strategies. The government has identified the area as the location of the San Tin Technopole, a major innovation and technology hub within the Northern Metropolis.
For land co-owners, this means San Tin is evolving from a largely undeveloped area into an important centre for innovation, research and future urban development.
Development opportunities
San Tin is expected to become a key location supporting Hong Kong's innovation and technology ambitions.
San Tin Technopole
The government plans to develop research facilities, technology industries, commercial activities, housing and supporting community infrastructure within the San Tin Technopole.
Cross-boundary collaboration
Located next to Shenzhen's Innovation and Technology Zone, San Tin is intended to strengthen collaboration between Hong Kong and Shenzhen in research, innovation and talent development.
What lies ahead
San Tin's future is closely linked to the implementation of the Northern Metropolis.
New transport infrastructure
Future railway and road improvements are planned to improve connectivity throughout the Northern Metropolis and strengthen links with surrounding districts.
New communities
