"Sheung Wan Tai Da Di"

Central and Sheung Wan were the earliest developed areas since the founding of Hong Kong. They were also the settlements of the Chinese at that time and record many stories of old Hong Kong. From September 10 to September 26, Infinitus Plaza will bring everyone a journey through time and space, through nostalgic scenes, markets, photo exhibitions, check-in installations and other activities, to present the old Central and Sheung Wan again before your eyes. The term "Tai Da Di" originally referred to Tai Da Di in Sheung Wan. There are performances, flea markets and food stalls in the big market. It used to be the best entertainment venue for ordinary Hong Kong people at night, so it is also called the "common people's nightclub". As the living standards of Hong Kong people gradually improve, these night markets are gradually disappearing. The "Da Da Di" that has been recreated at Infinitus Plaza this time has a check-in spot with nostalgic installations! Walking through the "Da Da Di Scenery" photography exhibition It is popular nowadays to take photos and check in in exchange for "likes", but the story behind each photograph is more worthy of discovery. "Sheung Wan Tai Da Di" has collaborated with local photography platform "Development" to curate an exhibition. In addition to exhibiting works of old Hong Kong taken by British photographer Redge Solley in Central and Sheung Wan in 1969, "Reflections on Old Movies" also exhibits photos taken at the filming locations of Hong Kong films, leading everyone to capture the movie world of that year and time. In 1969, influenced by the novel "The World of Suzie Wong", British writer Redge Solley set foot in Hong Kong and left a precious visual record of old Hong Kong of that era. His camera captures the most real and natural side of Hong Kong, vividly showing the daily life in the streets and alleys of Hong Kong in the past. Everyone can learn about the people's livelihood in old Hong Kong from the nostalgic street photos of Hong Kong. In addition, “Development” will also display precious collections of photographs about old Hong Kong, including works by famous Hong Kong photographers such as Fan Ho, Yau Leung, Chung Man-lue and Chak Wai-leung. "Yingyou Old Movies" was founded by four film students in 2020. They personally printed the movie scenes into photos, and then went to different Hong Kong filming locations to shoot, reminiscing about the old look of Hong Kong. The composition of the "photo within the photo" is also very thoughtful, giving people a feeling of interweaving time and space. Among the numerous photos, there are many taken in the Central and Western District. For example, in the 1980s classic Hong Kong film Rouge, there is a scene where Anita Mui’s character Ruhua is walking down the slope of a mountain road; in Forbidden Kingdom, there is a scene where Chow Yun-fat appears in front of the Statue Square in Central and the Court of Final Appeal. Looking back at these scenes today, they still seem classic. In the past ten years, many new things have happened. Take a tour of Hong Kong with the stills and relive the charm of Hong Kong films.
