People talk regarding revitalizing Hong Kong’s night-time economy every day, which is reminiscent of the 1980s when Hong Kong people’s nightlife was the most lively.

At that time, nightlife in Hong Kong was flourishing all over the place, and the people were rich and frugal. The nightlife of Hong Kong people, from the lavish nightclubs to the brightly lit night market stalls, was in full swing every night. Many discos on both sides of Victoria Harbor were crowded at night. You can go to There is no chance of passing by any emperor or superstar. There was no karaoke at that time, and the lounges with live bands and singers were always busy and filled with regular customers every night.

At that time, finishing dinner did not mean the end of the day. There were many programs and there was always a familiar place waiting for you. Even following watching the midnight movie, there are still many places to go. The east of Tsim Sha Tsui becomes more crowded as the night goes on, and there is a late-night snack restaurant every now and then. If you are in a good mood, you can cross the sea to the Causeway Bay Typhoon Shelter and take a boat to float out. Come to the Typhoon Shelter to have fried crabs and a bowl of Tingzi porridge under the bright moon and the sparkling waves. , what a wonderful memory. People at that time were very energetic, as if they didn’t have to go to work the next day. At 3 o’clock in the middle of the night, there was almost no space in the restaurant downstairs of the Miramar Hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui. If I wanted to have a cup of coffee and a bag, I had to make friends with the clerk. . At that time, Hong Kong people would not call it Lan Kwai Fong, because Lan Kwai Fong was everywhere, and it never turned dark every night.

When it comes to the night economy, it is the real night economy, where a hundred flowers bloom, forming a night life chain, with rich programs, interlocking, high-end and civilian, there is always a suitable one, instead of like now, talk and talk It seems like they only go to night markets that have a hodgepodge of things to do. At that time, we were all young, Night Ghost was young, and Hong Kong was also young.
