The first inhabitants of Western district, which is made up of the three districts of Sai Ying Pun, Shek Tong Tsui and Kennedy Town, were British troops, but it was soon taken over by refugees who fled from the mainland after 1850. Opened in 1888, the Peak Tram attracted more people to move to the Peak, and the summer residence of the former governors of Hong Kong was later built there. The Western District and the Peak Route covers 25 historic buildings and sites.
