Dialogue Between Literature and the City: A Reading Stroll from Sai Ying Pun to Kennedy Town

Sai Ying Pun and Kennedy Town are home to a wealth of local literary and visual memories. Starting from the Hill Road Flyover, you can pass by the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall and Old Street Bookstore, then head towards Third Street and Centre Street, where you'll find numerous independent bookstores and artsy cafes, such as "Preface Bookroom" and "Where Are Books." These spots have become new gathering places for literary enthusiasts. This area also appears in Eileen Chang's depictions of life on Hong Kong Island and in Ann Hui's film "Summer Snow." Walking through the sloped streets and the artistic installations at Sai Ying Pun MTR station, you'll discover that these place names are not just addresses but intersections of eras and personal memories—chapters of the city worth savoring slowly.
