Lyndhurst Terrace is a street in Central, Hong Kong. Built on a slope in southern Central district, the terrace links Hollywood Road (荷李活道) and Wellington Street (威靈頓街). In the middle it meets Gage Street (結志街) and Cochrane Street (閣麟街), and also the Central-Mid-Levels escalators (中環至半山自動扶梯). The terrace was named after John Singleton Copley Lyndhurst, an Assistant Magistrate. 擺花 means "flower arrangement" because the area is a traditional market for flower sellers. Some of the surrounding streets have florist stalls and shops.
 Default PoS: Additional PoS:  Level: 3 This term is used in both Cantonese and Mandarin/Standard written Chinese. |
