    Some of these traces are less obvious than others. Few traces remain of the original wave of development that brought Causeway Bay into Hong Kongโ€™s urban fold. Back then, Causeway Bay lived up to its name โ€“ it was a broad inlet known in Chinese as Tung Lo Wan, or Copper Gong Bay.
    Before urban development and massive land reclamation, Causeway Bay was a heavily silted bay. Its former shape can be found on maps by tracing Tung Lo Wan Road, which goes along the former bay. In the early stage of development, a causeway was built, which is the present-day Causeway Road.

    Traditionally, Causeway Bay refers to the area near today's Tin Hau Station, but Causeway Bay now comprises the area south of Victoria Harbour, with Oil Street as the eastern boundary, Tung Lo Wan Road and Leighton Road as the southern border, and Canal Road Flyover as the western boundary.
