LOVER'S ROCK

Lover's Rock (Bowen Road) - is a road from the Mid-levels to Wong Nai Chung Gap of Hong Kong Island, on the slope above Central, Wan Chai and Happy Valley in Hong Kong. Lover's Rock Starts at Bowen Road from Magazine Gap Road near the rail of the Peak Tram and Ends at the junction of Stubbs Road. 

Today the road is a popular route for joggers and dog walkers.

The road was named after George Ferguson Bowen, the 9th Governor of Hong Kong, from 1883 to 1885. It was colloquially called "Third Road" by residents in Hong Kong for being the third east-west road from the shore at that time. "First Road" and "Second Road" were Queen's Road and Kennedy Road respectively.
