Steemit 朋友大家好！這是我「生活小確幸」系列的第四篇文章哦:) 謝謝大家的支持！

On this beautiful Sunday, I went to Sham Shui Po. It is TOTALLY DIFFERENT from where I visited last time. It's a place where you can experience life. TRUE LIFE. As you all know, Hong Kong is a "fantastic international city" owning to its skyscrapers, fancy cars and amazingly dressed OLs. However, it is much more than that. Walking in HK, you can also see rundown buildings, obsolete cars and austerely dressed people. Sham Shui Po is a place where you can find all of these. This is what it looked like in the 60s:

在這個美好的星期天，我去了深水埗。這是一個跟上次我去過的截然不同的地方。在這裏，你可以體會生活。真正的生活。我們都知道，香港是一個「繁華的國際都市」。你也許會被摩天大廈、耀眼的跑車和衣著光鮮的辦公室女郎包圍。但是，真正的香港，遠遠不止如此。你還能見到殘舊的房屋、過時的汽車，還有衣著樸素的人們。深水埗，就是這樣一個地方。60年代的深水埗是這樣的：

Don't freak out. This photo was not taken in the 60s.

別怕。這不是60年代照的。

This is how it looks like now. Everything has changed, and everything is changing. However, something never does.

這就是深水埗現在的樣子。所有的事物都變了；所有的事物都在變。然而，有些東西，是永恆不朽的。

The first place I went to was Apliu Street.

我去的第一個地方是鴨寮街。

It is a large flea market where you can find electronics and related stuff. The price is unreasonable-unreasonably LOW!! You can also find many second-hand stuff here. Heyyy! Magnetsssss! Magnetic Man's gonna love this!!

這是一個專門賣電子商品的大型跳蚤市場。這裏的價格十分不合理－不合理地便宜！！！！你也可以在這裏找到許多二手貨物。看！！磁鐵專門店！！磁鐵人一定很愛這裏哦！！

Need a new phone case?

需要一個新的電話殼嗎？

Want some new toys?

想要一個新玩具嗎？

Or some new plugs?

或者是新插頭？

ALL of these shops were 'constructed' by the owners themselves. Great job!!!

所有的這些小商舖都是店主自己搭出來的哦！！幹得好！！！

LOOK!!! It's an ice cream truck!!! The ice cream vender, Mister Softee, introduced 14 ice cream vans in Hong Kong in the 1970s. After the HK government stopped issuing new hawking licenses in the late 1970s, the no. of ice cream vans stopped to grow. And luckily, we can STILL see these 14 old vans running in the territory:):) Actually there're only 4 types to choose from: vanilla soft ice cream, 'lotus cup', nutty drumstick and jumbo orange. Sounds OLD SCHOOL, right? ;ppppp You have to try this if you visit HK! It's now renamed to Mobile Softee.

看吶！雪糕車！！雪糕商「富豪雪糕」在1970年代推出了14輛這樣的雪糕車。在1970年代末，香港政府停止發牌給小販，所以雪糕車的數目就再也沒有增加過。幸運的是，我們現在仍然可以見到這14輛雪糕車在香港跑來跑去呢:):) 其實，這裏只有4種選擇：香草軟雪糕、「蓮花杯」、果仁甜筒和珍寶橙冰。聽起來很有歷史感吧？;ppppp 到香港來的話一定要試試哦！

Ohhhh it's raining!!☔️

噢噢！下雨啦☔️

The second place I went is the Golden Shopping Centre. It's EXTREMELY famous for its computer components. In HK, if you ask people where to buy IT products, 99.9/100 will suggest the Golden Shopping Centre. The Golden Computer Centre (the first picture) is on the upper floor while the Golden Computer Arcade is on the lower floor. As they have similar names, people often get confused. The former specializes in hardware while the latter sells mainly software (really? umm I'm confused too). In the 1990s, the price of a computer is VERY expensive. Therefore, people chose to BUILD THEIR OWN computers or buy one ASSEMBLED BY THE SHOPPERS in these shopping centers. That's how it started:):)

我第二個去的地方是Golden Shopping Centre。它因電腦配件極為出名。在香港，如果你問人去哪兒買科技產品好，99.9/100的人都會建議你來這裏！！！因為它們的英文名非常相似，所以人們經常將它們弄混。「高登電腦中心」（第一張相片）主要賣電腦硬件，下面的「黃金電腦商場」（第二張相片）主要賣遊戲和軟件（還是相反？天吶我也分不清啦）。在1990年代，一台電腦可是非常昂貴的。所以，許多人就開始自己組裝電腦，或者是購買店主自己組裝的。正因如此，這片區域就發展成了現在的樣子:):)

It's the Digital Hub logo!!!

是「數碼之源」的雕塑哦！

Actually, it's an IT shopping centre in which you can almost find ANYTHING you can think of: CPU, video games, motherboards, computers, RAM, and cute stuff!!

其實，這裏的科技產品應有盡有！！你能想到的，幾乎都能在這裏找到：CPU、電子遊戲、主板、電腦、RAM，還有可愛的玩意兒哦！

Some of the shops accept Bitcoin!!!!

有些商鋪已經接受Bitcoin啦！！！

Happy MINING!!!!!!! Well, please ignore the spelling mistake......LOLLLLLL

挖礦快樂！！！好吧，請無視拼字的瑕疵......LOLLLLLLL

After that, I went a famous shop in Prince Edward. It's often very crowed but today I was lucky. Their mango is just......fabulous!!!

然後，我去了太子的一間飲品店。這裏通常都要拍長隊。今天太幸運啦！他們的芒果真的是......太棒啦！！！

Haha, I guess I'll stop here. It's really a beautiful Sunday. If you come to HK, do remember to go there and experience the other side of this global village. Thanks for reading! If you any questions, comments or suggestions come into your mind, please feel free to tell me!!
