  • Gin Drinkers Bay or Gin Drinker's Bay, also colloquially known as Lap Sap Wan, was a bay in Kwai Chung, Hong Kong. The bay was reclaimed in the 1960s and became Kwai Fong and part of Kwai Hing. At the mouth of the bay stood the island of Pillar Island. The bay was a harbour for Tanka fishing junks. They relocated to Tsing Yi Tong and Mun Tsai Tong of Tsing Yi Island before the commencement of reclamation. Lap Sap (垃圾) means "rubbish" in Cantonese. It is unclear why the bay was named "rubbish" in the past. However, it was coincidentally once a dumping area for rubbish after extensive reclamation. It is assumed that in or near Pillar Island that the area is subject to landfill gas produced deep in the ground even though it is covered with earthen hills. It remains closed due to unsafe levels of landfill gas. Gin Drinkers Bay is known for the Gin Drinkers Line, which formed a defensive line against the Japanese invasion in 1941. (en)
  • 醉酒灣(英語:Gin Drinkers Bay,為一香港地名,為英文名Gin Drinker's Bay)反譯所得,正名葵涌澳,又稱醉翁灣、垃圾灣(英語:Lap Sap Wan),常被謬稱為葵芳,是香港新界葵青區昔日海灣,位於葵涌西部,即下葵涌,因1970年代填海工程消失。由於區內港鐵車站以「葵芳」(英語:Kwai Fong)命名,公營房屋亦以葵芳邨命名,故「葵芳」被一些香港人廣泛作地名使用,惟其並非正式地名。 (zh)
