City Design Tour Hong Kong City Design Tour Hong Kong city that caters to all ages and interests, a visit to Hong Kong will never disappoint! The beautiful A skyline of Hong Kong is renowned as one of the world’s most spectacular views with endless lights and skyscrapers that surround Victoria Harbour. When walking through the bustling streets of Hong Kong, you will never tire of discovering the variety of culture and architecture in every corner. Here are our top picks for your visit to this major global and financial hub! Upper House The word “luxury” is often associated with grandeur and magnificence. Yet, world-renowned architect, André Fu, brought us a new definition of luxury – Minimal Luxury. Fu presented Upper House with a subtle yet powerful touch of serenity and contemporary elegance. Upper House is comprised of a combination of natural materials, original sculpture installations and seamlessly proportioned spaces, rather than lavish and extravagant decorations. Its design creates an understated feeling of calmness that allows guests to enjoy a tranquil and elegant stay. upperhouse.com PMQ PMQ is the best place to experience the evolution of Hong Kong’s design and architectural culture. The building was once the Police Married Quarters and has since transformed into a unique arts hub that represents the fusion of traditional culture and innovation. More than 100 designers and chefs bring their creative products and delicacies to the district, making PMQ a fun and interesting place to visit. pmq.org.hk The Hong Kong Jockey Club Innovation Tower In the densely populated city of Hong Kong, the innovative design of the Jockey Club Innovation Tower is a magnificent sight. Located at Hong Kong Polytechnic University, this tower was the last architectural project designed by world- renowned architect, Zaha Hadid, before she passed away. Zaha’s design concept for this impressive 15-story tower was “to dissolve the typical typology of the tower/podium into a more fluid composition.” hkjc .com The Sik Sik Yuen Wong Tai Sin Temple The Sik Sik Yuen Wong Tai Sin Temple is a beloved tourist attraction that is famous for its claim to “make every wish come true upon request.” Built in 1921, the temple is classified as a Grade 1 historic building in Hong Kong. In Wong Tai Sin Temple, visitors explore traditional Chinese culture and architectural structures that represent the five geomantic elements: the Bronze Pavilion (metal); the Archives Hal (wood); the Yuk Yik Fountain (water); the Yue Heung Shrine (fire), where the Buddha of the Lighting Lamp is worshipped; and the Earth Wall (earth). siksikyuen.org.hk/en/wong-tai-sin-temple The Pawn The Pawn perfectly represents the unique “East Meets West” culture of Hong Kong. This fine dining restaurant is locat- ed in a building dating back to 1888 that was once the famous Woo Cheong pawnshop. While visiting the historic district of Wan Chai, dine at The Pawn for traditional and modern British cuisine in a unique space and rooftop garden. thepawn.com/hk The Iron Fairies Upon walking into The Iron Fairies, you’ll feel as though you stepped into another world! Interior designer, Ashley Sut- ton, was inspired by his experiences in the iron ore mines of Western Australia, where he wrote a series of fantasy novels about a band of miners who forge iron-fairy figurines. This distinctive bar resembles a blacksmith’s workshop, with principal design elements including iron, timber, brick and leather. The bar’s incredible ceiling features over 10,000 preserved butterflies, suspended on tiny metal rods to complete the surreal atmosphere. facebook.com/TheIronFairiesHongKong/ Top 8 Sightseeing Attractions 1 2 The Peak Tian Tian Buddha 3 4 Lan Kwai Fong Tsing Ma Bridge 5 6 Blue House Repulse Bay Beach Wan Chai Livelihood Museum 7 8 Tai O Lam Tsuen Hong Kong Humanscale Hong Kong 1304 The Kinwick Centre 32 Hollywood Road Central, Hong Kong Phone: +852 2581 0570 Brought to you by.

  • Icons, Culture and Collective Identity of Postwar Hong Kong
    Intercultural Communication Studies XXII: 1 (2013) R. MAK & C. CHAN Icons, Culture and Collective Identity of Postwar Hong Kong Ricardo K. S. MAK & Catherine S. CHAN Hong Kong Baptist University, Hong Kong S.A.R., China Abstract: Icons, which take the form of images, artifacts, landmarks, or fictional figures, represent mounds of meaning stuck in the collective unconsciousness of different communities. Icons are shortcuts to values, identity or feelings that their users collectively share and treasure. Through the concrete identification and analysis of icons of post-war Hong Kong, this paper attempts to highlight not only Hong Kong people’s changing collective needs and mental or material hunger, but also their continuous search for identity. Keywords: Icons, Hong Kong, Hong Kong Chinese, 1997, values, identity, lifestyle, business, popular culture, fusion, hybridity, colonialism, economic takeoff, consumerism, show business 1. Introduction: Telling Hong Kong’s Story through Icons It seems easy to tell the story of post-war Hong Kong. If merely delineating the sky-high synopsis of the city, the ups and downs, high highs and low lows are at once evidently remarkable: a collective struggle for survival in the post-war years, tremendous social instability in the 1960s, industrial take-off in the 1970s, a growth in economic confidence and cultural arrogance in the 1980s and a rich cultural upheaval in search of locality before the handover. The early 21st century might as well sum up the development of Hong Kong, whose history is long yet surprisingly short- propelled by capitalism, gnawing away at globalization and living off its elastic schizophrenia.

  • The Status of Cantonese in the Education Policy of Hong Kong Kwai Sang Lee and Wai Mun Leung*
    Lee and Leung Multilingual Education 2012, 2:2 http://www.multilingual-education.com/2/1/2 RESEARCH Open Access The status of Cantonese in the education policy of Hong Kong Kwai Sang Lee and Wai Mun Leung* * Correspondence: waimun@ied. Abstract edu.hk Department of Chinese, The Hong After the handover of Hong Kong to China, a first-ever policy of “bi-literacy and Kong Institute of Education, Hong tri-lingualism” was put forward by the Special Administrative Region Government. Kong Under the trilingual policy, Cantonese, the most dominant local language, equally shares the official status with Putonghua and English only in name but not in spirit, as neither the promotion nor the funding approaches on Cantonese match its legal status. This paper reviews the status of Cantonese in Hong Kong under this policy with respect to the levels of government, education and curriculum, considers the consequences of neglecting Cantonese in the school curriculum, and discusses the importance of large-scale surveys for language policymaking. Keywords: the status of Cantonese, “bi-literacy and tri-lingualism” policy, language survey, Cantonese language education Background The adjustment of the language policy is a common phenomenon in post-colonial societies. It always results in raising the status of the regional vernacular, but the lan- guage of the ex-colonist still maintains a very strong influence on certain domains. Taking Singapore as an example, English became the dominant language in the work- place and families, and the local dialects were suppressed. It led to the degrading of both English and Chinese proficiency levels according to scholars’ evaluation (Goh 2009a, b).

  • Digital Culture in Hong Kong Canadian Communities: Literary Analysis of Yi Shu’S Fiction Jessica Tsui-Yan Li York University
    Digital Culture in Hong Kong Canadian Communities: Literary Analysis of Yi Shu’s Fiction Jessica Tsui-yan Li York University Hong Kong Canadian Communities have particularly expanded between the 1980s 191 and the mid-1990s, in part owing to a new wave of Hong Kong immigration to Canada in recent years. This large-scale migration is mainly due to Hong Kong’s dynamic geopolitical and economic relationships with Mainland China and Canada as a result of its transformation from a British colony (1842-1997) to a postcolonial city. Hong Kong Canadian migration and communities offer important contribu- tions to the sociohistorical, political, and economic heterogeneity of multicultural Canadian communities. As a trading centre on Mainland China’s south coast, Hong Kong was an important stop on the travels of Chinese migrants to Canada from the late eighteenth century to the early twentieth century. With the hardworking ethics of its population and its role as a window to the rest of the world for Mainland China, Hong Kong gradually developed from a fishing port into an industrial city and then became an international financial centre, making the most of an economic uplift that began in the 1970s. With the advance of global capitalism, Hong Kong has progressively established its distinctive judicial, financial, medical, educational, transportation, and social welfare systems, and gradually produced a local culture and a sense of identity. Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) play a significant role in shaping contemporary diasporic communities, such as those of Hong Kong Canadians. According to Leopoldina Fortunati, Raul Pertierra, and Jane Vincent, “The appropriation of the new media by migrants has changed the way in which today people migrate, move, negotiate their personal and national identity and make strategies to deal with new cultures.

  • A Study on Historical and Architectural Context of Central Market The
    A Study on Historical and Architectural Context of Central Market The Hong Kong Institute of Architects July 2005 1.0 The History of the Central Market The historical significance of Central Market may better be understood by first examining the early history of its predecessors, the Canton Bazaar and the former Central Market. As early as in 1842, a market, named Canton Bazaar (廣州市場), was already opened by the Chinese living in the neighbourhood. It was first established at the section of Cochrane and Graham at the foot of the hill near Queen’s Road Central, then moved to Queen’s Road East, where the Supreme Court is now located in Admiralty. At around 1850, the Canton Bazaar was renamed to Central Market (中環街市) and moved to the current site: Between the Praya (now Des Voeux Road Central), Queen’s Road Central, Queen Victoria and Jubilee Streets. It was rebuilt again on years 1858, 1895 and 1938. In 1895, the Government rebuilt the former Central Market to a more elegant, marble structure in western style. Former Central Market on Des Voeux Road Central, c 1928. It was originally built on 1895 and was demolished not long after and then rebuilt in 1938. (Source: Cheng 2001) Former Central Market, the facade on Queens Road Central (Source: www.zazzle.com) In 1938, it was rebuilt again in contemporary western building styles of 1930s, inter alia, the Bauhaus was prevailing. The cost of construction for the new market was $900,000 and it opened again on 1st of May 1939. This new three- storey (plus the roof floor) reinforced concrete structure, with over 200 booths, high ceiling and equipped with many facilities, is regarded as the most advanced market at that time.
