Did people in ancient times always love testing their swords? There are rocks of peculiar shapes in all corners of the world that go under the same name – ‘Sword Testing Stone’. Standing on Lo Fu Tau Country Trail, the one in Hong Kong, whose cut is so neat that it looks as if the massive rock was split into two by an invincible sword, was formed as a result of prolonged weathering and has been a magnet for tourists. In the vicinity stand other bizarre rocks like Strange Duck Stone, which is awaiting its next imaginative story.
