Map Library displays latest street naming plans

Since last October, the Map Library on 5/F of the Hong Kong Central Library has become a designated place for displaying gazetted street naming plans for public inspection. Besides graphic representation, detailed description of the new streets is also included on the gazette notices.

Specializing in providing all kinds of maps and cartographic information, the Map Library stocks about 11,000 maps and over 3,000 old photos of Hong Kong. The maps include not only the most updated versions of maps of Hong Kong, China and other countries and cities, but also the old maps of Hong Kong. The Library also organizes various seminars to enhance readers' interest in the study of Hong Kong places.
