瀝源邨的由來 Origin of Lek Yuen Estate

瀝源,原為古名,意為清澈的水。早期的村民沿著這條清澈的水源建村落戶,以水為生。因此,早期整個地區都被稱為瀝源,而不是沙田。所以,政府在發展沙田新市鎮時,將區內興建的首個公屋命名為「瀝源邨」,以保留區內的歷史作為紀念。 

Lek Yuen, was originally an ancient name, which means clear water. Early villagers built their villages along this clear source and depended on water for their livelihood. Therefore, the entire area was called Lek Yuen in the early days, not Sha Tin. Thus, when the government developed the new town of Sha Tin, it named the first public housing estate built in the area "Lek Yuen Estate" to preserve the history of the area as a commemoration.  

此外,公屋樓宇的名稱多以傳統吉祥話為基礎。 由瀝源邨內七棟住宅樓宇的名字組成,代表「榮華富貴福祿壽」,寄託了當時市民的期盼。

 

Besides, the names of public housing buildings are often based on traditional auspicious words. Comprising the first name of the seven residential buildings inside Lek Yuen Estate, represent "Prosperity, Wealth, Fortune, Prosperity and Shou", which shows the hopes of the citizens at that time.
