商品簡介 |
This book is the catalogue of the exhibition, "Early Hong Kong’s Kowloon Peninsula". Many people are familiar with the tram services provided on Hong Kong Island, but do not know that in 1897 the Hong Kong government passed a tramway ordinance authorizing the Kowloon Godown to construct a tramway for transporting cargo in Kowloon. In the early 1910s, the Hong Kong Tramways Limited requested permission from the government to establish tramlines in Kowloon but this proposal was finally rejected. This exhibition features photographs focusing on the areas through which the proposed tramways were to be constructed. This includes the parts of Kowloon that were owned by the Colonial Government, such as Tsim Sha Tsui, Yau Ma Tei, Ho Man Tin, Mong Kok and Tai Kok Tsui, as well as those owned by the Chinese Government, such as Sham Shui Po, Cheung Sha Wan, Lai Chi Kok, Kowloon Tong, Kowloon City, To Kwa Wan and Hung Hom. Also included in the exhibition are images of then undeveloped areas such as Ngau Chi Wan, Wong Tai Sin, Ngau Tau Kok, Kwun Tong, Lei Yue Mun, and the new town of Tseung Kwan O.
本書為 "香江半島:香港的早期九龍風光" 的展覽圖錄。釵h人知道電車在香港島已行駛百多年,卻不知道香港政府於一八九七年通過電車法例,授權九龍倉在九龍區鋪設運貨的電車路軌。但到了一九一零年代初,香港電車公司向政府申請在九龍提供電車服務,而遭到否決。這次展出的照片主要是介紹當時擬定電車所經的區域,包括 "英屬九龍" 的尖沙咀、油麻地、何文田、望(旺)角及大角咀,以及 "華界九龍" 轄下的深水?、長沙灣、荔枝角、九龍塘、九龍城、土瓜灣及紅磡。此外,展出的內容還有尚未開發的牛池灣、黃大仙、牛頭角、觀塘、鯉魚門,以及新市鎮將軍澳。
