Kowloon - Tsim Sha Tsui

 
At the southern end of the peninsula is the district of Tsim Sha Tsui. At its southwestern tip is the large Ocean Terminal, with a shopping center, and the Star Ferry Pier, where ferries ply to and from Hong Kong Island. The shore area to the east was widened by reclamation from the sea, and has recently been developed as Hong Kong's cultural center. This was the site of the terminus of the Hong Kong-Canton Railway, which was moved farther east and is now represented only by its clock tower. To the east, between Salisbury Road and Hung Hom Railway Terminus (Hong Kong's main railroad station), are a number of new hotels and shopping centers (East Tsim Sha Tsui).
