Nathan Rd. - Kowloon - Hong Kong - China
Nathan Rd.Named after the British Governor who designed it, this street runs directly up to Boundary Street, and was long scorned as a white elephant and dubbed ""Nathan's Folly"". In recent decades, however, it has been known as the ""Golden Mile"" because of the dazzling array of brightly lit, neon-decorated shops, hotels, restaurants and nightspots that flank the wide thoroughfare. This shopper's paradise now extends much further than a mile, stretching up to Boundary Street and beyond.
