Memories of the East: Flaneuring into the Memories and Lives in the Eastern District | 東遊記：漫遊東區的記憶及生活
This set of tourist maps is the learning outcome of the course “Tourism, Culture and Society” (2017-2018) offered by Department of Sociology, The University of Hong Kong. With the support from community partners and community collaborators, students participated in experiential learning activities - including archival research, field trips, interviews, and training workshops, and joined the production of this set of tourist maps.
The Eastern District is located at the northeast of Hong Kong Island. Once a remote fishing village and quarry area, the Eastern District is now home to over 550,000 residents with vibrant business activities. The district is rich in a variety of spectacular cityscape and natural scenery. You could find street markets, local shops, shopping malls, old temples, commercial compounds, factories, historic buildings, tranquil hiking trails, typhoon shelter, and even cemeteries next to residential blocks. This set of tourist map features the history, local culture and residents’ stories of the following five precincts of the Eastern District:
(1) Fortress Hill and North Point,
(2) Quarry Bay and Mount Parker,
(3) Taikoo Shing and Kornhill,
(4) Shau Kei Wan, Sai Wan Ho and Lei King Wan, and
(5) Chai Wan, Siu Sai Wan and Cape Collinson.
本系列旅遊地圖乃香港大學社會學系開設的科目「旅遊、文化與社會」（2017至2018年度）之學習成果。在社區夥伴及社區協作單位的支持下，同學參與了體驗學習活動——包括檔案研究、實地考察、訪問及訓練工作坊，並參與製作這系列旅遊地圖。
東區位於香港島東北部，曾是遠離巿中心的漁村和採石場。時至今日，東區已發展成55萬多名居民的家，並有著蓬勃的商業活動。東區的城巿及自然風光令你目不暇給，你可以找到街市、地區小店、商場、舊寺廟、商業區、工廠、歷史建築、寧靜的行山徑、避風塘，甚至與住宅大廈相鄰的墳場。這系列旅遊地圖介紹東區以下五個區域的歷史、本土文化及居民的故事。
(1) 炮台山及北角
(2) 鰂魚涌及柏架山
(3) 太古城及康山
(4) 筲箕灣、西灣河及鯉景灣
(5) 柴灣、小西灣及歌連臣角
