Talk:Yau Ma Tei

Significance
And what is significant about Yau Ma Tei? Is it a major youth culture district? A district known for its older architecture or traditional food? What is special about it? I myself must admit I know nothing about Hong Kong, but if one were to speak of Tokyo, Akihabara is famous for electronics, and for anime/video game otaku (fan) culture; Shibuya, and recently Shimo-Kitazawa, are known as the major youth culture/youth fashion areas. Jinbocho is known as the bookshop district, and Asakusa is known for being one of the more traditional areas of the otherwise extremely modern city. So, where's Yau Ma Tei fit in? Note that I'm not a deletionist and am not trying to suggest that this get deleted for being non-notable. I just think that more info would be good. Thanks. LordAmeth (talk) 11:55, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
 * I lived in Yau Ma Tei for a few years when I was in Hong Kong and I can probably tell you a little bit about it. It's one of the three major district in Kowloon along with Mong Kok and Tsim Sha Tsui.  Together they are known as Yau Tsim Mong District.  Yau Ma Tei is also famous for having the Yau Ma Tei Typhoon Shelter which housed many fishmen and boat folks that lives permanently on a boat since the early 1900s.

 * For living in Hong Kong, I can safely say that it is a transition of old and new. Temple Street, for instance, is important for its, eh, temples and culture. Nikitan3096 (talk) 04:06, 31 March 2019 (UTC)
