Jordan Valley Channel
Jordan Valley nullah mainly conveys the rainwater collected from the catchment areas in the vicinity of Fei Ngo Shan and Ngau Tau Kok for eventual discharge into the Victoria Harbour. Upon completion of the revitalisation works for the Jordan Valley nullah in 2022, the Jordan Valley channel embodies various design elements of "Rivers in the City", including enhancing biodiversity, greening the existing concrete channel so that it can blend in with the community, increasing public open space and promoting a water-friendly culture through connectivity with the bank of the channel. Members of the public can now admire the view of the landscaped channel in the additional open space provided at the “River Garden” built over the Jordan Valley.
