傳說中最古舊既西式建築…

S香港係一個集合中西宗教傳統習俗既地區，係西方宗教方面就以基督教最為活躍。而你又知吾知最古舊既西式建築位於邊到呢？

登登登登，就係呢座位於中環花園道既聖約翰座堂喇。

Hong Kong is comprised of Chinese and Western religion and culture. In terms of Western religions, Christianity is most popular one in Hong Kong. in that case, do you know where is the most oldest  western style building located?

Haha,  St. John's Cathedral is that one locating in  Garden Road, Central.

 4459

聖約翰座堂係香港現存最古老既西式教會建築物，於1847年由當時既香港總督戴維斯爵士奠基，教堂設計揉合了13世紀的早期英格蘭式以及華麗哥德式建築風格。

As the oldest surviving Western ecclesiastical building in the city, its founding stone was laid by Governor Davis a mere six years after the British took possession of Hong Kong. The building you see today was completed in 1849 and extended in 1873. The cross-shaped structure was created in the styles of 13^th century Early English and Decorated Gothic.

1941年香港淪陷，聖約翰座堂曾遭日軍佔領並成為日本人的會所，更遭受嚴重破壞。目前教堂所見既內部裝潢，大部分都是戰後設計的。座堂曾歷多次修復和改建，於1996年被列為法定古蹟。

On Christmas morning in 1941, a dedicated congregation of 100 gathered for the cathedral’s last mass before Japanese shells rained upon the city. When Hong Kong fell, the cathedral was commandeered by the occupying forces and turned into a club. Many of its congregation were interred and services resumed when the war ended in 1945. In 1996, it was being a Declared Monuments.

 時至今日，呢座坐落於香港商業中心點既座堂仍然保留著深厚既聖公宗傳統， 而且更將牧民工作伸延至社會既廣泛生活中。每逢星期一至五，座堂內都會舉辦聖餐崇拜和午間祈禱，相關既信仰講座課程歡迎大眾參輿。 另外，聖約翰座堂亦積極發外展事工以幫助本港不同有需要的人如輔導服務，家庭傭工支援中心，愛之家諮詢及教育中心以及外勞牧民中心。

Nowadays,  St John's Cathedral stands in the heart of the city's financial downtown district but  rooting in the traditions of Anglicanism and yet at the same time exercising ministries which reach out into the wider life of the community.  there are series activities comprise of Said Eucharist, sung Eucharist, Holy Eucharist and some relevant religious talks are for public. Besides, St John's Cathedral  has taking part in outreach ministries proactively lead to serve different needs in Hong Kong such as the Counselling service, Helpers for Domestic Helpers, HIV education Centre, The mission for Migrant Workers and the Nest. 

                                    

另外，由於聖約翰座堂既獨特華麗建築風格，每年都有唔少教友新人選揀係到舉行婚禮，所以係到排期分分鐘耐過你排期登記注冊啊！

Moreover, because of the special style of the cross-shaped structure, there are vast of couples hold a wedding in St John's. Thus, you have to pre-book the service very early !!!

SPD4459 The Little White Shoes 參茸燕窩街 Ginseng & Bird's nest Street

SPD4459 Internet Marketing and Public Relations

今個Blog帶大家去買海味!
The little white shoes is bringing you to buy tonic food.

永樂街和文咸西街兩條街道，是香港最大的海味乾貨集散地。昔日，這裡有不少「南北行」*經營中國內地土產及雜貨買賣；如今，依然還有很多裝潢老舊的老字號售賣參茸海味。

永樂街、文咸西街
香港人注重飲食，參茸海味和燕窩等具有調養療效的食材十分風行。在德輔道西附近的永樂街及文咸西街一帶，參茸燕窩店林立，要選購這些滋補養生食品，這兒是不二之選。部分商鋪還有出售自製的燕窩甜點，不妨一試。

於早期年代，參茸燕窩街的建築多樓高三層。工人會將參茸海味放在屋頂曬乾。曬乾後，將貨品左地下的商鋪中出售。而中間的一層作為住宅

現今，參茸海味多置於街上將其曬乾。

在參茸燕窩街的店舖都有一個特色, 它們都會建高一級。因為香港雨水多，不時受到水浸的威脅。為了減少損失，店舖會建高一級以防止參茸海味和燕窩沾濕。

如何到達?

從港鐵上環站A2出口，沿禧利街往皇后大道中方向前往。

MTR Sheung Wan Station Exit A2. Walk towards Queen's Road Central via Hillier Street.

萬聖節 | 蘭桂坊 | 小白鞋

萬聖節大快樂！HAPPY HALLOWEEN~

 
                        689

尋晚你地有無趁機扮鬼扮馬出蘭桂坊癲返晚呀？

小白鞋怕比人踩唔肯去呀，但唔緊要，照同你介紹！

造型有無佢咁爆先？

蘭桂坊－位於香港中環區的一條呈L型的上坡小徑，名叫“蘭桂坊”（取其蘭桂騰芳之意）。廣義而言是指與德己立街、威靈頓街、雲咸街、和安里及榮華里構成，有超過一百間餐廳、酒吧及時尚生活的小店林立。

聚集左來自四方八面，五湖四海，唔同國藉嘅朋友嘅一個夜蒲聖地。識蒲一定蒲蘭桂坊，絕對係認識新朋友嘅好地方。好多中西區嘅上班一族一放工就會約埋三五知己摸。。。酒杯底，傾下心事。絕對係放鬆嘅好地方。

八十年代，加州餐廳的開張為香港帶來了西式的優雅餐廳，亦將蘭桂坊打造成外國人及潮流人士的聚集點。其空前成功造就了蘭桂坊的美食和娛樂事業發展。 蘭桂坊慢慢已經變成左一個文化交匯處，出到黎做野，識飲酒就把握到商機，好多contracts都係喺呢啲場合簽成架。。

如何前往:

港鐵：從中央的D1出口右轉畢打街一直往前走直到你到達皇后大道中，左轉，當你到德己立街，徑直沿德己立街，你會到達蘭桂坊芳。它需要10分鐘左右的步行路程。（請注意，地鐵通常運行到一半過去12日晚上和早上開始於半5，因此遊客必須乘坐出租車，如果他們留得太晚了。）

巴士：12M，13，23A及40M; 綠色專線巴士10A和10B麵包車
從山頂：乘坐纜車下山，並獲得15℃，山頂纜車總站。另外，乘坐小巴1號線在高峰期的平方，（道路是坎坷的），然後從中央巴士站步行約10分鐘
