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.

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

今日走走上環區，繼續發掘古蹟地方！

高陞街，是逾百年歷史的藥材街，以售賣中藥材聞名，故稱「藥材街」，亦是香港其中一個中藥材批發中心。位於香港上環和西營盤，是弧形街道，東連皇后街，西接德輔道西。

在開埠初期是香港的經濟活動集中地，由於鄰近上環南北行，藥材商於南北行地段飽和後，就紛紛把商行移至高陞街發展。亦因鄰近碼頭，有利藥材貨物上下裝卸，因而吸引不少藥材店鋪在此開業。

高陞街舊貌

約在1890年，高陞街是由香港富商李陞先生在上環皇后大道西投資建屋之時而成的；並因位於李氏所建的高陞戲院後面，因而名為高陞街。

至今，高陞街仍保留著發行中藥的店鋪。

地址: 香港島上環高陞街

Address: Ko Shing Street, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong Island

如何前往:

從中環乘坐往堅尼地城或屈地街方向的電車，於東邊街站下車，車程約需7至8分鐘。

How to get there:
Take a tram to Kennedy Town or Whitty Street in Central. Get off at Eastern Street then walk along Des Voeux Road West to Ko Shing Street.

相信到過西港城的你都知道它是一座商場。但依它的外貌來看，應該都知道它曾受時間洗禮，背後擁有一段頗長的歷史吧！可是有多少人知道呢？

I believe you all know Western Market is a kind of shopping mall. However, how many of you know the history about it?

現時，西港城建於1906年, 是全港最古老的街市建築物。於 1990 年獲古物古蹟辦事處列為法定古蹟，前身為舊上環街市北座大樓。　 At present, the Western Market is the oldest market building surviving in Hong Kong which completed in 1906. The building was originally the old Western Market (North Block), which was identified by Antiquities and Monuments Offices (AMO) as one of the Declared Monuments in 1990. 上環街市北座大樓於 1989 年已停用空置。直至1991年，市區重建局(前土地發展公司) 展開修葺工程，將之改建為傳統行業及手工藝中心，並易名“西港城”。  The market building became vacant. Until 1991, Urban Renewal Authority (URA) (The former Land Development Corporation) converted the market into a center of traditional traders, arts and crafts and renamed it as "the Western Market". www.flickr.com 西港城的結構屬英國愛德華式建築風格。此種建築風格於 1901 至 1918 年期間在英國非常風行。 The building is in Edwardian style that was popular in England from 1901 to 1918. 以紅磚及花崗石砌成主要結構，利用石塊色彩及紋理製造多色效果，而角樓外牆附有帶狀磚飾。 Combination use of red bricks and granite band on a granite base and the 'bandaged' brick work to the corner towers gives a polychromatic effect.                                  www.kenmerry.com 為適應香港氣候及配合建築物料的供應，建築物的斜屋頂以中國式捲狀瓦片鋪設，表現香港早期西式建築物所揉合的東方色彩。 In response to the local climate and availability of material, a steep roof is used covered with Chinese pan and roll tiles. The roof displays the combination of oriental features into the early Western style of building in Hong Kong.  小白鞋將於下一編部落格中為你介紹今天的小白鞋。密切留意!
