Shing Mun Redoubt (English: Shing Mun Redoubt), also known as the Shing Mun fortifications, was an important military installation of Hong Kong in the past and formed part of the Gin Drinkers Line; it is located in the New Territories in the area of Smugglers' Ridge, south of the Shing Mun Reservoir in Shing Mun valley and north of Golden Hill. In December 2009 the Antiquities Advisory Board graded the Shing Mun fortifications in "the area south of the Shing Mun Reservoir and Kam Shan Country Park in the New Territories" as a Grade II historic building of Hong Kong.
