History of Mong Kok:

Mong Kok was called Mang Kok in ancient times because the local Miscanthus is overgrown and the terrain is like a horn that extends into the sea. It is called Mangjiaozui, and the nearby village is named Mangjiaocun.

In Qing dynasty, Mang Street was also called the corner of fame. Since 1860, Mangjiao was ceded to Britain with Kowloon Peninsula. By 1909, the Hong Kong government began to reclaim land in this area and build typhoon shelters, with docks and roads nearby.

In A.D. 1930, Mongkok was renamed Mongkok because of its prosperity, but its English name (Mongkok) remained unchanged and has been used ever since. At that time, Mong Kok was an industrial area with many tobacco factories, cotton mills and hardware factories. Today, Mong Kok has become a very prosperous shopping and residential area.
