[geography]
Tsim Sha Tsui is a part of Yau Tsim Mong District, Kowloon. It is located at the southern end of the Kowloon Peninsula, bounded by Austin Road and Kang Chong Road in the north, facing central and Wan Chai of Hong Kong Island across the Victoria Harbour. Geographically, Tsim Sha Tsui is a promontory at the southern end of the Kowloon Peninsula, adjacent to Hung Hom Bay. Before the reclamation, because the sea water nearby was blocked by guanyong mountain, a long and sharp beach was formed at the south end, which was very significant in topography
the original coastline of Tsim Sha Tsui is around Salisbury Road and Chatham Road. There are two parallel promontories: Kowloon and blackhead. There is also a small bay between the two promontories. After many reclamation projects, Tsim Sha Tsui has increased a lot of land area, but it is still a highly developed area and has always been the heart of Hong Kong
[history]
Tsim Sha Tsui, located at the end of the land on the east coast of the Pearl River Delta, has been a sea route hub in South China since ancient times.

Until 1860, when the Kowloon Peninsula was ceded to Britain, some docks were responsible for transporting fragrant trees in Dongguan, so they were called xiangfutou. According to the annals of Xin'an County in 1819, there was jianshatou village in Tsim Sha Tsui at that time
in the early 19th century, with Guangzhou becoming the maritime trading center of the Qing Dynasty, a large number of foreign merchant ships (many of them opium ships) were moored off Tsim Sha Tsui. On July 7, 1839, a British sailor was drunk and rioted in Tsim Sha Tsui. He beat a villager, Lin Weixi, to death. The incident, known as the Lin Weixi incident, became one of the fuse of the Opium War< In 1860, according to the Treaty of Beijing, the Kowloon peninsula south of Boundary Street was ceded to Britain, including the whole of Tsim Sha Tsui.
