Choi Hung (彩虹) Estate was built in 1962 and has a history of more than 60 years. It is one of the early public housing estates built in Hong Kong. There are 11 buildings in the village, and the exterior walls are decorated with colorful paint, highlighting that it fits the name of "Rainbow (Choi Hung彩虹) Estate". Due to the age of the buildings in Choi Choi Estate, the government has determined that Choi Choi Estate will be demolished and rebuilt in phases starting in 2028. It has witnessed the development of Hong Kong's city and people, and it will soon become history.
