九龙半岛
九龙半岛是香港的三大区域之一，东南西三面被维多利亚港包围。1898年，通过一系列租借条约，英国租借九龙半岛北部、新界和邻近的两百多个离岛，租期99年至1997年回归中国。九龙半岛以尖沙咀、油麻地及旺角最具吸引力，是游客聚集的购物天堂，著名酒店林立。

Kowloon Peninsula
Kowloon Peninsula, one of the three major parts of Hong Kong, is surrounded by Victoria Harbour on three sides, except the North. In 1898, after the conclusion of a series of treaties on concessions, the British leased, for 99 years, the northern part of the Kowloon Peninsula, New Territories and more than two hundred outlying islands nearby, which would be returned to China in 1997. Tsim Sha Tsui, Yau Ma Tei and Mong Kok, are the most attractive sites and serve as the shopping paradise for tourists and also house many famous hotels.
