大家好，今次SPD4459小白鞋就帶大家去回顧一下舊中區警署和域多利監獄。
Hello everyone, we are going to look back the Old Central Police Station compound in this journal. 

圖1.1 

中區警署內歷史最悠久的建築物是建於一八六四年之大樓(圖1.1)，大樓原高三層，與域多利監獄毗鄰。其後，警署逐漸擴建,面對荷李活道的四層高大樓則於一九一九年加建。它與毗鄰的前中央裁判司署及域多利監獄，組成了一組標誌著法律及紀律的歷史建築群。現時，舊中區警署和域多利監獄為香港的法定古蹟。

舊中區警署屬後維多利亞風格，其紅磚牆、花崗石雕刻以及巨型圓柱最為特別；而裡頭又有鍛鐵陽台，以及花崗石建成的地板、樓梯，也值得一看。

近年來，香港政府致力推廣保育和活化古蹟, 所以這些歷史建築群現正在活化，預計於2015年底重新開放。(圖1.2, 1.3)

The Old central Police Station, which is the oldest structure within the compound is a barrack block built in 1864. Nowadays, the police station and prison are a Declared Monument in Hong Kong.It is a three-storey building constructed adjacent to Victoria Prison. A storey was later added to the block in 1905. In 1919, Headquarters Block facing Hollywood Road was constructed.

The late-Victorian style building is notable for its red brick walls, granite features and the imposing columns in its entrance hall. The barracks blocks at the left of the main entrance to the Old Central Police Station were built in 1860 and 1913. These have impressive granite staircases and wrought-iron balconies.

In recent years, the Hong Kong Government is committed to the promotion of heritage conservation and revitalization, these historic buildings are being activated, is expected to re-open at the end of 2015.

域多利監獄於一八四一年落成，是香港開埠初期最先以耐久物料建造的建築物。第二次世界大戰期間，監獄內大部分建築物因受轟炸而嚴重損毀。當局進行修復後，於一九四六年重開作監獄之用。(圖1.4)

Built in 1841, Victoria Prison was understood to be the first western building constructed of durable material in Hong Kong. Most of the buildings within the compound were damaged by bombing during the Second World War. The Prison was reopened in 1946 after repairs.

目前，域多利監獄正進行活化工程, 於2015年底, 域多利監獄會以全新臉孔呈現在大家眼前, 密切期待。見(圖1.5)

摩羅街又名為貓街。因為過往曾有偷來的賊贓，俗稱「老鼠貨」。外國人稱來買「老鼠貨」都是貓，因而得名。

Upper Lascar Row is also known as Cat Street. It is because some antiques or second-hand items were stolen goods, commonly known as “rat goods”. People who buy these goods are like “Cats”, therefore, it called Cat Street.

SPD4459 The Little White Shoes: Sugar Cane Juice At Grade 2 Historic Building - Kung Lee

SPD4459 The Little White Shoes!

二級古蹟 公利真料竹蔗水

炎炎夏日，大家逛街的時候難免會大汗耷細汗。「如果眼前出現有一杯冰涼的飲品可以解渴消暑就好了。」當大家正走在荷李活道就有福了，我地即將同大家介紹既天然又原汁原味既消暑飲品 – 公利真料竹蔗水。

In this hot summer, most of us must be looking for a drink to cool down ourselves, especially walking outdoor. Today, we are going to introduce a cool drink to all of you, Sugar Cane Juice from Kung  Lee which locates at Hollywood Road.

公利真料竹蔗水的大門

公利真料竹蔗水店內佈置

存放新鮮的竹蔗

從公利的外表可以睇得出呢間店舖充滿歷史的味道，由窗戶、陽台及店內的佈置都令人想起昔日的香港。

When you walk into Kung Lee, you will find decoration, inside whatever  windows and balcony are filling with the

'Old Hong Kong' style. 

原來店鋪早在一九四八年開業，至今已有五十八年歷史。不為人知既係公利前身係華仁書院，即香港第一所由華人管理的英文中學，早在一九一九年成立於此地。及後校舍得以保存，成為了公利真料竹蔗水，更被列為香港二級古蹟。

Kung Lee opened at 1984 which have history of a half century. Early in 1919, it was Wah Yan College, first English secondary school managed by Chinese. Later on, the school was revitalized as Kung Lee and becomes Grade 2 historic building in Hong Kong.

公利真料竹蔗水價目表

聽完公利的故事後，未知大家會唔會對公利有更大的期待呢！夠竟係咩原因令公利迄立至金？相信絕大部分係因為公利用真材實料去製作每一杯飲品。以竹蔗汁與竹蔗水為例，公利唔會故意混用。前者係由完整甘蔗榨出來的汁；後者是將甘蔗、茅根、陳皮一起煲煮，所以價格都不同。

What make Kung Lee come across a half century and maintain its competitiveness nowadays ? To a large extent, the raw material uses and its business philosophy make it successful. For example, Sugar Cane Juice and Sugar Cane Tea make up of two different ingredients, Kung Lee would never mix up for charging a higher price. 

特別推介公利蔗汁糕

除了竹蔗水外，公利更有售龜苓膏及五花茶等。當中最值得推介的係蔗汁糕，口感綿軟煙韌，放入口中更有淡淡清新的甘蔗味，既可消暑又可當甜品食。我地試完之後都不忙影低同朋友開心Share！

Besides Sugar Cane Juice, there are Herbal Jelly and Five Flowers Tea. Among them, we truly recommend Sugar Cane Pudding to all of you. Its texture is soft and tastes fresh and cool !

Today to Heritage (無論雨怎麼打，自由仍是會開花)

(SPD4459 The Little White Shoes)今天是一個特別的日子,對於香港,香港人,中西區及本網誌。

(攝影: 香港知專設計學院(HKDI)-Lee Yin Wai  JAKE )

這篇網誌是這網站成立以來第一篇網誌,對我們意義非常。所以在下筆之前,我反覆思量,我應一如早前的計劃向各位介紹中西區-荷李活道的歷史、地標、特色等等, 還是籍著今天‐--- 這個特別的日子向大家介紹一條更有意思,更切合我們小白鞋精神 (about me)的街道-夏慤道(Harcourt Road) (link to wikipedia),去看小白鞋精神, Central and Western District(中西區)和heritage(繼承物)。我不知我的伙伴們會否同意,但在紙筆之間豫疑良久後,決定一試。

「過去・現在・未來」的連結所産下的果我們稱之為文化遺産(heritage),我們每一天在香港每一條街道上行走和生活,用現在寫下了過去,再日積越累築成文化和傳統,而街道正正就肩負著一種被我們寫下的責任,就像一塊畫版,記載我們的生活。今天,在平日只有車來車往的夏慤道(Harcourt Road),真實的看見,人們如何為一條街道寫下「它」的故事。

 (攝影: 香港知專設計學院(HKDI) - Lee Yin Wai  JAKE )

這天的夏慤道跟平日的不一樣了, 路上沒有了那一輛輛買不起的豪華房車,長長的車龍,混沌的廢氣 ;街道上一個又一個的香港人-他們懷著保衛我城的意志,努力不懈的向政府訴說他們的心聲,希望高高在上的他們能停一停・聽一聽。街道上有的人站著支持丶有的坐著支持、也有一些累了躺在友人身旁蓆地而睡的人,每個人都是平靜的。但就在某ー刹那,一切都變了,一個又一個了無人性的催涙彈在人群中爆開,街道上的人對突如其來的傷害,不但對自己安全感到害怕,更加對高高在上的他們,平日保護他們安全的人感到害怕。有一刻,就像   <<那夜凌晨，我坐上了旺角開往大埔的紅VAN>>的對白一樣---我們嘅城市，已經唔存在㗎啦...大家無謂再自己呃自己，話出面一切係正常。

(攝影: 香港知專設計學院(HKDI)- Lee Yin Wai  JAKE )

但正正因為這樣街道多了一份「香港情」,一份難得的情。夏慤道上的每人都盡自己的一點點綿力去幫助受了傷的人。物資,從一個又一個人的手上運到前線;關心,從一個又一個人的口中傳開;信念, 從一個又一個人的行動感染全港。就這樣留守的人又為香港抗爭了多一晩。

從來,歷史由人們寫下, 這天, 香港人為夏慤道寫下了一個充滿小白鞋精神的故事,而我深信這道路亦將會成會香港的一個heritage,因為它同時記下了我們如何為香港民主自由開拓一條新道路。在此網誌就不會評論整件事誰對誰錯,一切留待故事傳承之後,讓世人站在這heritage給予評價。

(ps : 本來其中的一個重點應要介紹一下夏慤道的歷史,但現在應該不是重點了吧!但有興趣的,還是可能看看 : http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%A4%8F%E6%85%A4%E9%81%93)

SPD4459 The Little White Shoes - 中西區歷史 History of Central and Western District

(SPD4459 The Little White Shoes) 中西區是香港十八區之一，位於香港島西北部，香港開埠後最早發展的地區。中西區可以細分為中區（金鐘、中環和上環）、西區（西環、石塘咀和堅尼地城）和半山區（太平山和薄扶林）三個部份。現時區內摩天商廈臨立，不但成為香港的旅遊特色外，亦映射著香港在國際大舞台的地位。

另一方面，中西區是集歷史、文化和藝術於一身的區域。雖然經歷百年歲月的洗禮，但亦保留了很多極具歷史價值的古蹟、建築物和特色街道。例如：終審法院大樓、前立法會大樓、石板街（砵典乍街）、文咸街等等。這全都是香港人的集體回憶！

The Central and Western District is one of the 18 administrative districts in Hong Kong and located on northern part of Hong Kong Island. The Central and Western District is also the earliest development district after opening the port of Hong Kong. It can be separated into 3 main parts which are central district (Admiralty, Central and SheungWan), Western (Western District, Shek Tong Tsui and Kennedy Town) and mid-levels district (Victoria Peak and Pokfulam).

Nowadays, in Central and Western District, there are lots of skyscrapers and you will be surrounded by them. These skyscrapers helped to showcase Hong Kong’s development to the world. On the other hand, Central and Western District is a place of history, culture and art fusion. The beauty of Central and Western District lies in its old and new, eastern and western cultural heritages, buildings and feature streets. For example: CFA building, the former Legislative Council Building, Pottinger Street, Bonham Street, and so on. These are the collective memories of HongKonger.

SPD4459 關於我們 About us - The Little White Shoes

(SPD4459 The Little White Shoes )我們是網絡市場學及公共關係的學生。此部落格名為 ”小白鞋”。白鞋是指白飯魚，是香港人對白布鞋的俗稱。有些人認為白鞋全身白色，像兩條白飯魚，於是便給它這個別稱 。久而久之，大家都習慣叫白鞋做白飯魚了。

小白鞋在時裝角度上，是一永不過時的單品。這四字亦可用來形容中西區。香港中西區雖然是較早開發的地區，但經過不同活化工程和時間洗禮，至今仍能保留舊貌亦不失時代感，是現代和懷舊集於一身。因此，用永不過時來形容它最合適不過了！

我們相信每一香港人都曾穿著過小白鞋，當然是香港人的集體回憶之一吧！

小白鞋能充份演繹香港精神。五、六、七十年代的香港人憑穿著小白鞋創出一片天。小白鞋就是香港人拼博的象徵，努力不懈的精神。因此我們希望藉著小白鞋，喚起新一代香港人和來自五湖四海的外國朋友去認識昔日和現在的中西區。

此部落格每星期會以不同街道作為主體 ，透過街道歷史、地標、特色，從不同角度欣賞中西區, 將中西區的古蹟歷史呈現大家眼前！

About us:

We are students of SPD4459 Internet Marketing and Public Relations. This blog called “The Little White Shoes”. Hong Kong-ers named white shoes as a fish breed –Noodlefish (白飯魚) because it looks like it so this is why the nickname is given. Over time, everyone used to call white shoes as Noodlefish (白飯魚) and commonly known in Hong Kong.

In fashion perspective, white shoes are always viewed as an in-fashion item. In-fashion is an adjective that can be used to describe the Western-Central district adequately. Although Western-Central district was early developed, this district has remain its old-look and modern simultaneously after variety of activation and conservation projects.

The white shoes are definitely one of the collective memories among Hong Kong-ers. The white shoes reflect Hong Kong spirit abundantly especially in the period from the fifties to seventies. Therefore, we wish to introduce the Western-Central district to the new generation and tourists through “The Little White Shoes”.

We will use different streets as the weekly-topic and present the heritage of Western-Central district to you all through its history, landmark and features!
