Princess Margaret Road
Princess Margaret Road (Chinese: 公主道; pinyin: Gōngzhǔ Dào; Cantonese Yale: gung1 jyu2 dou6; lit. "Princess Road") is a road in Kowloon, Hong Kong.
Originally called Nairn Road (楠道) with the English name after a town in Scotland and Chinese name after the nanmu trees that grew there,[citation needed] the road was renamed to commemorate the 1966 visit to Hong Kong of Princess Margaret, Countess of Snowdon of United Kingdom.[1]
Princess Margaret Road starts near at Gascoigne Road, runs northward, cutting through the hills between Quarry Hill, No. 12 Hill and Ho Man Tin proper, and reaches the intersection of Argyle Street and Waterloo Road.[1]
Depicted in the movie The Legend of Speed, it actually is a popular road for illegal street racing.[citation needed]
