油塘魔鬼山上,有第二次世界大戰時代的軍事碉堡歌賦炮台(Gough Battery),建有石牆、槍炮窗口、石坑、戰壕、炮台、軍火庫等。部分建築物跟大自然樹木融為一體,樹根盤踞,給多點想像力,可稱「港版小吳哥窟」,亦有身處叢林探險家 Indiana Jones (電影譯名:《奪寶奇兵》)境地的感覺。
位於油塘和調景嶺中間,魔鬼山又名炮台山,是二戰時期英軍的重要軍事設防基地。這座山能眺望維多利亞港和將軍澳對開海面,是一個重要的戰略位置,防範當時入侵的日軍。之前,這座山一直被海盜佔據,所以居民稱為魔鬼山,現在只有遺留下來的殘破廢墟。
Gough Battery on Devil’s Peak is a military fortification from World War II era. There are stone walls with shooting windows, trenches, batteries and amunition depots. Some buildings are integrated with nature, tangling with tree roots. With imagination, it can be called Hong Kong’s “Little Angkor”. There is also an Indiana Jones jungle explorer feel.
Located between Yau Tong and Tiu Keng Leng, Devil’s Peak, aka Battery Mountain, is an important military fortification base during World War II. Its strategic location overlooking Victoria harbour and Junk Bay, which is important to repel Japanese invasion at that time. Previously, the mountain has been occupied by pirates, so the residents called it Devil’s Peak, with abandoned ruins remaining now.
