Sai Ying Pun Continues in Modern History in the Inheritance of History

# data[].attributes.body
Sai Ying Pun is located in the western part of Hong Kong Island and has a long history of development. It is the oldest district in Hong Kong.
Since Hong Kong opened as a port in the 19th century, many Chinese have gathered here to open shops and do business. Before reclamation in the Western District, due to its proximity to the pier, there were many fishing boats mooring, and the unique geographical location has given many shops here more convenient conditions for selling seafood. These shops have been developed to today’s Seafood Street. The Western District Public Cargo Working Area has also become a resting place for the surrounding residents. In addition, there is a road directly from the mountain pen to the beach, and there are many traditional shops, which are not found in modern places such as Central and Tsim Sha Tsui.
With the development of society, these traditional stores have not been swallowed up by the times, but continue to exist in a tangible form. The owners of these stores have always adhered to their own stores, adhered to traditional things, and allowed these traditional cultural heritage to continue.
