Explore old Hong Kong on Cobblestone Street and Graham Street

#100 Ways to Travel Explore old Hong Kong on the streets of Hong Kong "It is history and also a miniature of movies." "Stone Street": A distinctive uphill street on Queen's Road Central. In 1858, the Hong Kong government named it Pottinger Street to commemorate the achievements of the first Governor of Hong Kong, Pottinger, during whose tenure the Hong Kong Government, the Executive Council, the Legislative Council and the High Court were established. The stone stairs stacked up from top to bottom used to be a symbol of the British army's entry into Hong Kong, but nowadays, by some strange coincidence, they have become a good drainage mechanism on rainy days. There are also restaurants and attractions such as "Yi Lok Roast Goose", "Lan Fong Yuen", and "Mid-Levels Escalator" nearby! It's totally fine to travel all the way! in addition! in addition! This is the filming location for many famous movies, such as "Lust, Caution", "October Besieged City", "Infernal Affairs III", etc. Come here to explore and become the protagonist of the story~ "Graham Street Mural": You will see it soon after walking up the cobblestone street. It is located in Sheung Wan and has become a popular Instagram check-in spot in recent years. The mural is only 5 meters long, but it depicts the tragedy of old Hong Kong at that time. In the early days, Sheung Wan was a lawless area, so many lawbreakers gathered here. This short painting can let you experience the prosperity and unrest of the 50s and 60s in a grain of sand. In addition to taking pictures, don't forget to feel this untold past! 💞Recommendation reason: Walking in the alleys, you can feel the cultural impact of "old Hong Kong" and "new Hong Kong". Although there is a shock, there is a good integration. This is the charm of Hong Kong 🇭🇰~ 🗓️Itinerary: Take the longest "Mid-Levels Escalator" to the top and walk down slowly - "Lanxiang Garden" for breakfast 🍳 - Wenwu Temple - Continue walking down to find treasures in many old shops - "Yi Le Roast Goose" - Graham Street murals - Stone Street 🚴Transportation: Take the MTR to Central Station, then find the exit from Global Building or the cinema to the ground level, then walk west for 5 minutes along Des Voeux Road Central or Queen's Road Central to the first street. #Stone Street #Graham Street #Knowing Old Hong Kong #OldHongKongFeelings #Orchid Garden #Yi Le Roast Goose #HongKongTravel
