Tsim Sha Tsui (English name: Tsim Sha Tsui, also known as Tsim Sha Tsui), formerly known as Tsim Sha Tsui, was called Tsim Sha Tsui in ancient times and Xiangbu Tau in the old days. In the past, the area around Dongguan was full of fragrant woods. The juice squeezed from the roots of fragrant woods could be used as spices, called Wanxiang. Due to the convenient water transportation in Hong Kong, spices would first be concentrated in Tsim Sha Tsui, then shipped to Shek Pai Wan in Wong Chuk Hang on Hong Kong Island by ship, and then transported to the mainland by water. It had developed into a settlement in the Ming Dynasty. Tsim Sha Tsui is part of the Yau Tsim Mong District in Kowloon. It is located at the southern end of the Kowloon Peninsula. It is bounded by Austin Road to Hong Zhuang Road in the north, and faces Central and Wan Chai on Hong Kong Island across Victoria Harbour. From a geographical point of view, Tsim Sha Tsui is a cape at the southern end of the Kowloon Peninsula, adjacent to Hung Hom Bay. Before the land reclamation, the sea water near the area was blocked by Guanyong Mountain, and a long and sharp beach was formed at its southern end, which was very prominent in terms of topography. The original coastline of Tsim Sha Tsui is around Salisbury Road and Chatham Road. There were originally two parallel capes: Kowloon Cape and Blackhead Cape. There is also a small bay between the two capes. After many reclamation projects, Tsim Sha Tsui has increased a lot of land area, but it is still a highly developed area and has always been the heart of Hong Kong.
