Located in the northwestern part of Hong Kong Island, the Central and Western District of Hong Kong, China is one of the oldest and most vibrant districts in Hong Kong, adjacent to Victoria Harbour and encompassing the districts of Central, Sheung Wan, Sai Wan and Tai Ping Shan. As the administrative and financial center of Hong Kong, Central is an important global business hub with a concentration of skyscrapers (e.g. IFC, Bank of China Tower), government headquarters and international financial institutions. Sheung Wan, on the other hand, retains its traditional flavor with historical landmarks such as Hollywood Road Antique Street, Man Mo Temple and Western Market, showcasing Hong Kong's root culture. Western District is known for its quiet residential area and waterfront promenade, and the panoramic view of Victoria Harbour from the Peak is a must-visit for tourists. The Central and Western District is a blend of modern prosperity and historical heritage, epitomizing an international metropolis and exemplifying the intersection of Eastern and Western cultures, carrying the unique charm of Hong Kong.
