Question 1: Which city is Hong Kong also known as (1) the Pearl of the Orient?

(2) Xiangjiang River

Question 2: What is Hong Kong also called Xiangjiang? Pearl of the orient.

Question 3: Hong Kong is called Hong Kong because of what it is. There are different opinions about the origin of place names in Hong Kong. One of them is the story of Chen Qun, an indigenous resident, who led the British troops to the northern part of Hong Kong Island when they first landed in Stanley, Hong Kong Island (refer to A Qun's road map). However, before Britain established its colony in Hong Kong, the concept of Hong Kong actually existed in the late Ming Dynasty. At that time, Hong Kong referred to the small island opposite the pit, that is, Ap Lei Chau [3 1] opposite Huangzhukeng today, not Aberdeen today. Since there is a Hongshengye Temple in Ap Lei Chau which has been believed since the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and the Tianhou Temple in Aberdeen was believed by many people only in the early Qing Dynasty, the development history of Ap Lei Chau should be earlier than that of Aberdeen, and the name of Aberdeen itself indicates that it appeared later than that of Hong Kong. Moreover, Huangzhukeng, Aberdeen and Tianwan were bays 65,438+000 years ago, with little flat land and small population.

Please accept it, thank you!

Question 5: What is the most famous in Hong Kong? There are only three things to do in Hong Kong: 1) Go to Ocean Park or F Disney: If you are not crazy about F Disney's cartoon characters, I suggest you go to Ocean Park, which is very big and can be played from morning till evening. It is suggested that dinner and an evening program be arranged after that day. 2) Shopping: It is indecent to come to Hong Kong without buying anything. But now some small shops in Hong Kong are also quite dark. I suggest you go to a big chain store to buy it, unless you are familiar with it (know the brand name and price), especially watches and jewelry. Now some shops in Hong Kong take some unknown brands and say they are Swiss famous brands. I want to hit them when I see them. A. Cosmetics, electrical appliances, watches, gold and jewelry: just go to the Dalian lock store in Mong Kok or Causeway Bay. B. There are also some in Mong Kok, but some are quite dark. C. Clothes: famous brand, the most expensive (poor IFC, Landmark Plaza; Harbour City Tsim Sha Tsui Peninsula Hotel) is in the middle range to Causeway Bay (sogou) and in the low range to Mong Kok. Some shops in small commercial buildings are quite suitable. D. Famous brand outlets: There are shopping malls in Tung Chung (it is an hour's subway ride from the city center, which is suitable for young people to shop) 3) Sightseeing: ranking 1 According to my personal preference) Tsim Sha Tsui seaside plus Avenue of Stars (1.5 hours is ok) 2) Star Ferry Terminal: Central-Tsim Sha Tsui 3) Rotten Legislative Council Building, Bank of China Building, Guo Jin Phase II (see the whole territory). 4) Peak (only a standard view of Victoria Harbour, but the mountain road is relatively curved, so the old people may not be able to stand it) (5 hours' drive back and forth, sightseeing) 5) Angping cable car plus Tiantan Buddha (plus 2d outlets) is a good one-day tour, but unfortunately, if you only come for two days, you can only choose between this one and Ocean Park. You can go to Phoenix Mountain, the second highest peak in Hong Kong. 6) Lan Kwai Fong and SOHO District: Many bars add foreigners. If you are young, I would recommend him to 7) Repulse Bay and Stanley: beautiful places, but a little far (it is estimated that it will take five hours to drive back and forth). 8) Convention and Exhibition Center: Nothing, just a place marked by the return of Hong Kong. If you are indifferent to this, you can. Young people do not recommend it. 9) Shopping in Hong Kong Park and Pacific Place: near average. The advantage is that it costs nothing and the environment is very good. Many people take photos and wedding photos here, but don't watch this when you go to Ocean Park. 10) Wong Tai Sin: The most famous place of worship in Hong Kong is Taoism. You don't have to go unless you want to ask God for advice.

Question 6: What is Hong Kong called for? Hong Kong is a natural port. There is a sweet and delicious stream nearby. Sailors who come and go at sea often come here to get water to drink. Over time, the sweet stream became famous. This stream was also called "Xiangjiang", and the small harbor formed by Xiangjiang alluvial into the sea began to be called "Hong Kong". A group of British people landed on Hong Kong Island from this harbor, so they named the whole island after "Hong Kong". To this day, "Xiangjiang" is still another name for Hong Kong.

Question 7: How did Hong Kong get its name? What was it called before? There are three legends about the origin of the name "Hong Kong":

One is from Xiangjiang. It is said that a stream flowed into the sea from the mountain on the island in the early years. The water quality is sweet, which supplies fresh water for nearby residents and passing ships, and is called "Xiangjiang River". The port where Xiangjiang River enters the sea is also called "port". The former site of Xiangjiang, near Pokfulam today, has long since disappeared, but "Xiangjiang" has become another name for Hong Kong.

Another said that the name of Hong Kong came from "Gu Xiang". Gu Xiang is a legendary female pirate who once occupied Hongkong Island. Later, this island was called Gu Xiang Island, and then it evolved into Hongkong.

There is also a saying that the name of Hong Kong comes from the "red incense burner". Legend has it that a long time ago, a red incense burner floated from the sea and stopped in front of the Tianhou Palace. Residents thought Tianhou was a saint, so they enshrined the red incense burner in the temple. There is a mountain on the island, also called Hongxianglu Mountain. Later, this place was called "Hongxiang Road Port" and called "Hong Kong".

There is a well-founded saying that the name of Hong Kong is related to fragrant trees and fragrant markets. Fragrant trees grow in the coastal areas of Guangdong and northern Vietnam, mainly in Dongguan, Xin 'an and other counties, and are also planted in Sha Tin and Lantau Island in Hong Kong.

When the tree grows to 20 feet high, it can be made into "incense" by cutting the juice, which is the raw material of various incense products and can be used as a good product for offering sacrifices to gods and tributes. Vientiane is famous all over the country. Before the first year of Wanli in Ming Shenzong, all areas in the port belonged to Dongguan County. Sha Tin and Tai Po are famous "Vientiane" producing areas.

Because it is rich in incense, the incense market trade here is also very developed. Most of the fragrant products were first transported to Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, and then transported to Shipai Bay (now Aberdeen) by "Big Eye Chicken" for concentration, and then transported to the mainland of China, Nanyang and even other countries. Therefore, Tsim Sha Tsui was called "Xiangbutou" in ancient times, Shipai Bay, a port for transporting spices, was also called "Hong Kong", and the nearby villages were also called "Hong Kong Village". Later, the name "Hong Kong" was extended to cover the whole island.

Question 8: What are the names of several districts in Hong Kong? Hong Kong consists of Hong Kong Island, Kowloon Peninsula, New Territories and more than 200 islands.

According to the geographical division of Hong Kong, * * * is divided into 18 districts:

Hong Kong Island:

1) central and western regions

2) East Zone

3) South District

4) Wan Chai

Kowloon:

5) Kowloon City

6) Yau Tsim Mong

12) Yuen Long

13) North Zone

14) Saigon

15) Sha Tin

16) Tsuen Wan

17) Kwai Tsing

18) islands

But if it is based on common or daily division methods, there are countless names.

For example, Central and Western District includes Central, Mid-Levels, Peak, Sheung Wan, Sai Ying Pun, Western District, Shitangzui, Western District, Kennedy Town and Mount Davis.

Another example is Kwai Tsing District, which includes Kwai Chung in the New Territories and Tsing Yi on outlying islands. Kwai Chung and Tsing Yi also have several sub-districts.

So if you ask which regions are made up of Hong Kong, Kowloon and the New Territories, it depends on what N principle you are based on.

Question 9: What is a good name for Hong Kong? The laudatory name of Hong Kong

Hong Kong is one of the "Four Little Dragons of Asia" and one of the richest and most developed economies and regions with the highest living standards in the world. Hong Kong is an important financial, service and shipping center in Asia. Historical changes have made Hong Kong develop from a small fishing village with only 5,000 people to today's international metropolis. The night view of Hong Kong is beautiful, especially decades before the operation of Kai Tak Airport in Hong Kong 1998. Because Kai Tak Airport is located in the center of Hong Kong, you can see the bustling scenery of Hong Kong under thousands of lights from the plane arriving in Hong Kong at night, just like a pearl in the dark. Therefore, Hong Kong has another name and a good reputation as the Pearl of the Orient. This title originated in the1970s, which not only describes the beauty of Hong Kong, but also describes its economic prosperity. Hong Kong is a free port. Since 1960s, it has been known as a "shopping paradise" internationally.
