Ngo Keng Kiu (Goose Neck Bridge) Street Market


You may be amazed to hear that 100 years ago there was a stream from Happy Valley to Victoria Harbour which was widened to became a canal in the mid-19th Century, long and curved like the neck of a goose. This was Goose Neck River, and Goose Neck Bridge stood over it. In 1979, the market facing the bridge was re-built and became the first Hong Kong Street Market Food Centre.

The fish store in this photo selling fresh fish and seafood caught from the sea around Hong Kong and China. Somebody said there are so many chefs from hotel or classy restaurant buy their food in this market.
