Redhill (紅山), Surrey (薩里郡)




Redhill is a town located in the south of Surrey. East of Redhill is Reigate which is historically a rich area with expensive houses and private schools. Croydon (Greater London zone 5) is located in the north of Redhill.


Redhill is also really close to Box Hill (only 21 minutes by car), which is the Surrey greenbelt where people can enjoy walking in the countryside.


Redhill is very convenient being so close to Gatwick Airport (14 minutes driving and 9 minutes on the train). There is one flight per day (by Cathay Pacific) from Gatwick to Hong Kong. *


Redhill is a commuter town with good roads (motorway M23) and railway links to London, Guildford (west of the Surrey) and Brighton (down south to Sussex).


Surrey is known to be one of the wealthier home counties and is located in the South East of England. Home counties are counties of England which surrounds London.


*Currently not running due to COVID-19 (Only flights available from Heathrow Airport)



紅山（Redhill）是位於薩里郡（Surrey）南部的一個小鎮。東邊有另一個富人區小鎮 Reigate。那裡有昂貴的房屋和私立學校。北邊有克羅伊登(Croydon, 倫敦 Zone 5 ) 。


紅山非常近Box Hill（開車21分鐘），是薩里郡非常出名的行山勝地。距離格域機場（Gatwick Airport）也是非常近 (開車14分鐘，乘火車9分鐘)。 每天都有一班機 (國泰航空) 由格域機場飛往香港。 *


紅山是一個通勤小鎮，擁有良好的道路（M23高速公路）和鐵路。 有火車去倫敦，Guildford（薩里郡西邊）和 Brighton（向南方向的修適士郡 Sussex）。


薩里郡（Surrey）位於英格蘭東南部。作為一個 home county， 薩里郡是一個較為富裕的郡。Home Counties 就是圍繞倫敦的外圍的郡。


*由於COVID-19所以目前沒有飛機來往 (只有希斯路機場有飛機)
