[Check-in Hotspot] A Place of Memories for Hong Kong Drama Fans
The gas lamps cannot help but shine upon a pair of lovebirds on the street♪ Shining over a young couple in love with their hearts close together♪
Duddell Street is located in Central, connecting Ice House Street and Queen's Road Central. At its southern end lies a flight of stone steps, flanked by retaining walls built of granite. At the top and bottom stand four atmospheric gas street lamps, which were installed around 1883. Initially lit by hand, these lamps became the only ones remaining in the city to still provide lighting service following the electrification of Hong Kong’s street lamps in 1967. Today, they are operated automatically, lighting up from 6:00 PM to 6:00 AM daily, and were declared a monument in Hong Kong in 1979.
The nostalgic, retro architectural style of the granite steps and the classic, elegant gas lamps evoke the romantic atmosphere of movie scenes, making this a popular spot for couples to visit and for newlyweds to take wedding photos. Duddell Street itself is a small street with light foot traffic, yet it holds a familiar, intimate charm. This is because it has served as a filming location for many Hong Kong movies and television shows, including the classic scene where Cecilia Cheung looks back in *King of Comedy*. The music video for Anita Mui’s classic hit "Dreaming" was also filmed here. Accompanied by the song "Lovers on Duddell Street," performed by young singer Lok Wan-yu, the layers of memories make you feel as if you are right there. As one of Hong Kong's landmarks, Duddell Street is worth a visit to experience the unique sentiment of the city.
