SPD4459 油尖旺景點 - 油麻地第五站: 油麻地警署




Do you have any idea where we are going to talk about the next destination in Yau Tsim Mong? I think you already have some idea in mind as it is all come from the famous TV show in Hong Kong.
大家對以上的相片有無任何印象呢? 我相信你們都已經有睇過相關的電視節目,都對我們將會介紹的油尖旺景點都不會陌生了吧。





Yes, you are right, it is Yau Ma Tei Police Station! 
無錯,這就是油麻地警署!

Yau Ma Tei Police Station was built in 1873 and move its location in 1922. After World War ll, Yau Ma Tei Police Station made a huge extension and it become the largest police station in Yau Tsim Mong district. From time to time, government always intended to demolish the police station for another construction plan. However, many different plan ultimately suspended  or make alternative changes due to the substantial social repercussions. In 2009, Yau Ma Tei Police Station was classified as Grade 3 historic building which reflect its historic value.
在1873年, 油麻地警署創建於上海街及眾坊街交界,即現時梁顯利油麻地社區中心位置,上海街當時也此稱為差館街。後期警署於1922年遷往廣東道及眾坊街交界,在二次大戰後更擴建多座大樓,成為了九龍 半島歷史最悠久的警署。其實政府一直都有意拆卸警署以作其他興建計劃,但都因社會回響甚大,最終都只好把計劃作出修改或擱置。在2009年,油麻地警署被批為三級歷史建築,可見其歷史建築價值。

Yau Ma Tei Police Station was built in Edwardian Free Style which totally reflect its old Hong Kong building style and gorgeous enough to highlight the authority of police.

油麻地警署絕對紀錄了油尖旺的變化有著很大的貢獻。在油尖旺中,油麻地警署始終發揮著重要作用,並成為正義的象徵。 還記得上年我台灣的朋友 - 曉琳來到了香港,我建議她去油麻地警署一趟。當我們到達,她說沒有看到這樣的建築可以讓她有著深刻的印象。我希望你們也可以拿出一點時間,好好參觀一下在油尖旺中這珍貴的建築
