Brief Introduction

Hong Kong, located at the northern fringe of the Tropics, is characterized by high temperture and sparing rainfall. In phytogeographical theories, the native vegetation should comprise primarily board-leaved trees. However, human activities have caused devastating damagees to our forests over the years and eventually wiped out almost all native forests. Amazingly, many native lush forests are preserved on slopes behind villages. There are fung shui woods, a common rural feature of Southern China.
