經過連日大雨,大潭篤水塘滿瀉,需要洩洪。氣勢磅礡的流水如瀑布般一瀉而下,蔚為壯觀。近日吸引不少遊人和龍友到場飽覽及拍攝這壯麗景色。
大潭篤水塘位於香港島南區,是大潭水塘群其中之一,已有逾百年歷史,其水壩及石橋等亦被列為法定古蹟。
水塘容量為14.2億加侖。 大壩由丹尼爾·謝婓(Daniel Jaffe)設計,高60呎,寬800呎,有12個拱門,由半圓花崗岩柱支撐,這些圓柱還用於支撐連接赤柱和柴灣的大潭路。
After days of heavy rain, the Tai Tam Tuk Reservoir is overflowing and needed to be discharged. The magnificent water cascades down like a waterfall, which is spectacular. Recently, many citizens and photographers have been attracted to the scene to enjoy and take pictures of this magnificent scene.
Tai Tam Tuk Reservoir is located in southern Hong Kong Island. It is one of the Tai Tam Reservoir Group, with a history of over 100 years. Its dam and stone bridge are listed as monuments.
The reservoir has a 1.42 billion gallon capacity. The dam, designed by Daniel Jaffe, is 60 feet tall and 800 feet wide, with 12 arches supported by half round granite columns which were also built to prop up the Tai Tam Road connecting Stanley and Chai Wan.
