A quieter corner of Central compared to its buzzing Lan Kwai Fong neighbour, Duddell Street is a historic lane anchored by a flight of granite steps completed in 1883. Adorned with elegant Tuscan-style balustrades, the stone steps are flanked by Hong Kong’s last four remaining gas-powered street lamps, making it a popular filming location for numerous Hong Kong dramas, films and music videos. Despite serious damage to the steps and gas lamps due to Super Typhoon Mangkhut in 2018, the street was quickly restored to bring back this remnant of a bygone era. The stone steps and gas lamps have been a declared monument since 1979.
