'''Magazine Gap Road''' ([[Traditional Chinese characters|Chinese]]: 馬己仙峽道) is a winding road on the affluent and ultra-expensive [[Mid-Levels]] and [[Victoria Peak|the Peak]] on the [[Hong Kong Island]] in [[Hong Kong]].  It is one of the main access leading to the Peak area.

==Description==
It starts low from [[Robinson Road, Hong Kong|Robinson Road]] and [[Garden Road, Hong Kong|Garden Road]].  It runs east and uphill and meets [[Bowen Road]] and [[May Road]].  It continues and meets the junction with [[Coombe Road]] and [[Peak Road]] at {{ill|Magazine Gap|sv|Magazine Gap|yue|%E9%A6%AC%E5%B7%B1%E4%BB%99%E5%B3%BD}}. It ends in {{ill|Bowen Hill, Hong Kong|lt=a peak nearby|yue|%E5%AF%B6%E9%9B%B2%E5%B1%B1}}, where {{ill|Chureido Pagoda#Hong Kong|lt=a Chureido Pagoda|yue|%E9%A6%99%E6%B8%AF%E5%BF%A0%E9%9D%88%E5%A1%94}}, a Japanese war shrine, was built during Japanese occupation of the territory between 1941 and 1945. It was destroyed in 1947, shortly after the [[Liberation Day#Hong Kong|Liberation of Hong Kong]].

With road connections nearby, vehicles can reach either north or south of the island through roads in [[Wan Chai Gap]] and [[Wong Nai Chung Gap]].
