Queensway (Hong Kong)

Queensway is a major road in the Admiralty area of Central, Hong Kong. It was originally a section of Queen's Road East, to its east, and part of the continuum of Queen's Road that by the years after World War II had come to be known separately as Queen's Road West, Queen's Road Central, (Queensway), and Queen's Road East. At its western end it splits into Queen's Road Central and Des Voeux Road Central while at its eastern end it merges into Hennessy Road, at the junction with Queen's Road East.
==Name==
Queensway was formally separated and given its own name when the extensive military and naval sites that dominated this area were resumed by the Government for development, around the 1960s.〔(Queen's Pier - 1920s )〕〔(Why is Admiralty different? ), Gwulo (see 1964 map)〕 Its Chinese name can be translated as ''Golden Bell Road'', a reference to a notable bell once located in the adjacent Admiralty Dock, and does not include 'Queen'.
The road is one of only a handful in the territory to have a name consisting of a single word. Other examples are Glenealy (Central), Smithfield (Kennedy Town) and Broadway (Lai Chi Kok). Perhaps because of this, and influenced by the suffix 道 (''to'', lit. road) in its Chinese name, the thoroughfare is sometimes mistakenly called Queensway Road.〔The film world is oddly inclined to refer to this thoroughfare as 'Queensway Road', e.g. (here ).〕
