Summary
| Description | 宋王臺原石，原石於1943年被日軍破壞，應為1943年或之前的作品。Sung Wong Toi Rock, Kowloon, c. 1950. The original boulder, depicted on this photograph, was for many years an important historic relic much esteemed and protected by the local community. The three large characters cut into a boulder have been interpreted as Terrace of the Sung King and, by local tradition, connected with the temporary sojourn in the area of the two boy-princes of the Song Dynasty. Many smaller inscriptions visible on the boulder, of lesser importance, were added later. During the Japanese occupation of Hong Kong, 1942-45, the boulder was dislodged when the hill was leveled. The part of the boulder containing the three characters survived the blasting operations and after the war was rescued and placed in a small park close to the original site.
