Fo Pang
Fo Pang (Chinese: 火棚) is an area located in a valley of Kowloon, Hong Kong. It is at the northeast of Danger Flag Hill and south of Ho Man Tin proper. It is about present-day Wylie Road and east of Wah Yan College, Kowloon.
Before the construction of the college, the No. 1 Kowloon Cemetery for Europeans was located in the area and closed on 15 December 1933. (Ko, 2001)
The Kowloon-Canton Railway passes through the area.
