Chuk Yuen (Chinese: 竹園; lit. 'bamboo garden') or Chuk Un was a village and an area in New Kowloon of Hong Kong. The area located in the approximate area of present-day Wong Tai Sin. The name now also refers to two public housing estates, Chuk Yuen North and Chuk Yuen South Estates.
Due to redevelopments starting from 1957, the only surviving part of historic Chuk Yuen is at Chuk Yuen United Village, at the junction of Shatin Pass Road and Lung Cheung Road.[1]
