History

The constituency was created under the overhaul of the electoral system imposed by the Beijing government in 2021, replacing Tuen Mun District and the southern part of Yuen Long District (all District Council constituencies not covered by New Territories North) of the New Territories West used from 1998 to 2021. A constituency with the same name were also created for the 1995 Legislative Council election in the late colonial period.
