Leighton Hill
Leighton Hill (Chinese: 禮頓山) is a hill between Causeway Bay and Happy Valley, and the south of Leighton Road, Hong Kong. There were several air-raid shelters at the downhill of Leighton Hill to protect Victoria City from Japanese occupation during the Battle of Hong Kong in World War II.[1][2] In 2002, a private housing estate with the same name The Leighton Hill is built.[3]
