About Bazaar in Central

Submitted by ypso on Wed, 01/09/2013 - 11:28

Hi Guys,

I am now doing a research and looking for pictures/ Historical Info. about the Canton Bazaar/ Chinese Market in Central.

This research is actually mainly about the evolution of HK markets/ vernacular livings in different generations.

However, I find fews terms are quite confusing and I can't really tell the historical/ topographical differences among them, they are , 1. Upper Bazaar 2.Middle Bazaar, 3. Lower Bazaar/ Market. 4. Canton Market/ Bazaar.

Does anyone know any books/ references can help answering this?

With many thanks

Bill

Hi Bill,

You can strike 'Canton Bazaar' off the list, as that was over towards Pacific Place, see: http://gwulo.com/node/5498

Then I'm not 100% sure but I think Patrick Hase talked about the Central Market / Bazaars in his talk, see: http://gwulo.com/Historical-development-of-the-Central-District

Please let us know what you find out,

Thanks David, I am now a

Thanks David,

I am now a bit more clearer on the subject on Canton Bazaar, and now look into the presentation by Patrick that you have recorded. I think his presentation slide on Central will help clarifying so many questions in my mind.

Will let you know what I will be finding out.

Thanks again.
