Tin Yan Estate (Chinese: 天恩邨) is a public housing estate in Tin Shui Wai, New Territories, Hong Kong, near Light Rail Chung Fu and Tin Fu stops.[3] It consists of eight residential buildings completed in 2002 and 2004 respectively.[4][5] Four of them were originally designed as an Interim Housing estate, but they were renovated to become a public housing estate in 2004.[6] During the SARS outbreak in 2003, Block 2 and 3 were furnished as temporary quarters for frontline healthcare staff.[7]
