During the early days of Hong Kong’s establishment, it refers to the period starting from the cession of Hong Kong to the British in the 1840s during the Qing Dynasty and extending until the lease of the New Territories in 1898. At that time, British Hong Kong transformed from a small fishing village with limited natural resources into a free port and entrepôt, replacing Macau’s position in Guangdong’s foreign trade. Simultaneously, Guangdong was frequently plagued by wars and unrest, leading many residents to seek refuge in Hong Kong, and wealthy merchants shifted their capital to the relatively stable Hong Kong. / Property owner: artport, digitalization: artport.
