Hong Kong landmark Fringe Club, Graham Street graffiti wall, rainbow stairs and Ding Ding station
Hong Kong has always been a city I love very much. I think Hong Kong street photography is very special. I would like to share with you some places in Central that I think are suitable for street photography. I have marked each point as detailed as possible, so even if you are a road idiot, you can get there with navigation~ (See Figure 9 for the specific locations of each point)—-----------Recommended route for street photography in Central---------------
Fringe Club→Graham Street Graffiti Wall→Aberdeen Street→Sam Ka Li Graffiti Alley→Rainbow Stairs→Sheung Wan Ding Ding Station→Central Ferris Wheel→Volatile Ice Cream Truck. Scan the QR code of the route map in Figure 9 to open the map route directly. It is Google Maps, so you have to go to Hong Kong to open it.
--------------Instructions for photo spots in Central--------------
🌟1. Fringe Club (Figure 2)
Exit D1 of Central MTR Station, enter "Fringe Club" in the navigation and walk 400 meters to arrive. The red and white stripes on the exterior are very literary and artistic. It is a building with a history of more than 100 years located in Central.
Girls can take photos in various shapes under the words of the Fringe Club, or take a panoramic photo of the entire building at the corner of the intersection~
🌟2. Graham Street Graffiti Wall (Figure 1)
The largest graffiti wall in Central is located at the intersection of Graham Street and Hollywood Road. You can find it by typing "god Hollywood Road" in the map navigation. When taking photos, girls can pose with their backs to the wall, sit on the ground stairs, walk against the wall, or hold the railing next to it to take photos~ In addition, there is a small graffiti wall at the intersection of the end of Graham Street and Staunton Street, which is also very beautiful and can be photographed~
🌟3. Aberdeen Street (Figure 3)
The intersection of Aberdeen Street is quite beautiful, with many beautiful shops on the street, especially suitable for street photography. You will pass by the "PMQ" Creative Park on the street. The wall outside is very beautiful for street photography. There is a koi staircase inside that is also suitable for taking photos (the koi staircase is on the upper part, you have to walk up the lower part of the stairs to see it). The recommended locations can be seen in Figure 9 for detailed instructions~
🌟4. Sanjia Graffiti Alley (Figure 4)
A small alley located on Aberdeen Street. There is a street-style graffiti wall that is very beautiful for taking photos. The alley is relatively narrow. If you want to take a larger composition, remember to bring a wide-angle lens, otherwise you can only take close-ups.
🌟5. Rainbow Staircase (Figure 5)
A small staircase from Queen's Road Central to Suhang Street. If you don't look down, you will easily miss it. The rainbow staircase is suitable for low-angle upward shooting. Aren’t the long legs and the rainbow staircase very eye-catching~
🌟6. Sheung Wan Ding Ding Station (Figure 6)
Sheung Wan Ding Ding Station seems to have fewer people than Central Station. You can take various close-up photos with the Ding Ding Car in the station. After taking the photos, you can also walk to the corner of the Western Market and take photos of the Ding Ding Car passing by from a distance. You can wait patiently for a few more Ding Ding Cars here. The appearance may surprise you~ (If you are interested in taking photos of Ding Ding Cars, you can click me to see another detailed Ding Ding Car photography guide)
🌟7. Central Ferris Wheel (Figure 7)
After taking photos of the Sheung Wan Ding Ding Car, you can take a Ding Ding Car or MTR to Central. If you take the MTR, exit at Central A2 Exit and walk to the Ferris Wheel in less than 10 minutes. You can take photos with the Ferris Wheel from a distance on the way, or go to the bottom of the Ferris Wheel and take a wide-angle close-up shot
🌟8. Volvo Ice Cream Truck (Picture 8)
You may see the Volvo ice cream truck near the Ferris wheel to the Star Ferry. If you are lucky enough to see it, take as many photos as you can with the truck.
If you don’t see the ice cream truck in Central, you can take the 2-dollar Star Ferry to the Star Ferry in Tsim Sha Tsui opposite. There is a high chance that you will see the ice cream truck~
PS:
If you don’t want to rush and are not interested in taking photos of the Ding Ding car or the Ferris wheel, you can go to the nearby Internet celebrity restaurant "Jiu Ji Beef Brisket" to eat noodles after taking photos of the rainbow stairs. This street photo shoot ends happily~😘 (Warm reminder that Jiu Ji Beef Brisket is closed on Sundays)
If you feel that you haven’t taken enough photos, you can go to the "Central Pier 9" and "Central Stone Street" which are often filmed in Hong Kong TVB. The scenery at these two spots is beautiful, but it is not easy to take photos because there are many people. I prefer the stone street at night. There are fewer people and the nostalgic old street is particularly flavorful under the dim lights.
