維港貌變 Changing Face of the Victoria Harbour, Hong Kong

In 1988, I left Hong Kong to emigrate to Canada. It was until 2007 that I returned and saw the changing face of the Victoria Harbour. Our familiar landmarks of the Star Ferry Pier, Black's Pier and Queen's Pier had gone. Hong Kong’s hunger for growth had reclaimed for land along the waterfront in Central and Wanchai Districts, causing the beautiful Victoria Harbour narrower and deformed.
In 5 years from 2007 to 2011, I had witnessed the deformation of the harbour. Now I can only recall its beauty from the old photos!

我在1988年離開香港移居加拿大，直至2007年返港，目睹香港維多利亞港的變化。我們熟悉的天星碼頭、卜公碼頭、皇后碼頭的地標已相繼消失。香港為求增加土地，將維港填海，做成海港狹窄、原來美麗的中環海岸線已變得面目全非了。自2007年到2011年，我目睹了維港的貌變的過程。昔日的美麗海港，也衹能在舊照片重溫！
