Wo Lok Estate (Chinese: 和樂邨) is a public housing estate in Kwun Tong, Kowloon, Hong Kong. It is the oldest existing public housing estate in Kwun Tong District, and the first public housing estate with seven-storey blocks. It comprises 11 blocks of buildings of Old Slab type built from 1962 to 1966. It was developed into 2 phases. Phase 1 included 8 seven-storey blocks built in 1962 and 1963, while Phase 2 included 3 blocks built in 1965 and 1966.
