Introduction :

荷李活道(Hollywood Road),有時亦稱作荷里活道,位於香港中環至上環,是香港開埠後興建的第一條街道。「荷李活道」的名字與美國電影業的荷里活無關,卻來自早年荷李活道一帶的冬青樹(Hollywood)。 荷李活道是殖民地時期首條街道,早在 1841 年英國人登陸香港島時便開始興建,在太平山山腳的荷李活道,早年尚未填海前乃接近海邊的,經過百多年來中環不斷填海,已遠離海傍甚遠。很多人以為荷李活道得名自美國加州電影生產地荷里活,然而道路名稱其實源自早年荷李活道一帶種植的冬青樹(Hollywood),因此名為 Hollywood Road,中文則音譯為荷李活道。這名稱出現時,美國的荷里活尚未出現。據香港歷史學者蕭國健則指,Holly 是指當時一帶生長的榕樹。
