Holland Street

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki


Holland Street (荷蘭街) is in Kennedy Town and first appeared on a map along the coast in 1889. It is 0.08 km long[1]. This street is one of three Hong Kong streets with a Dutch reference, the others being Java Road and Dutch Lane.[2]

It is unclear whether the street was named after the area where Dutch ships used to unload or after Holland Street in London’s Kensington district. [3]
