Hong Kong is known worldwide for its colorful neon
signs. Nathan Road has a high concentration of them. It is
a main thoroughfare that runs through the southern districts of
the Kowloon Peninsula, namely Tsim
Sha Tsui, Jordan,
Yau Ma Tei, and Mongkok.
If not for the crowds and the shops that capture you - or your
spouse, it only takes an hour or two to walk the whole stretch
from the southern tip in Tsim Sha Tsui to Prince Edward.
There are shops lining both sides of the road and also in the
side streets.
When it comes to neon signs and billboards, you can find them
on and around Yee
Wo Street in Causeway
Bay as well. They can also be seen in many other areas as
well, just not in such concentration. (2008.11.4)
