Nathan Road, Arterial road in Yau Tsim Mong District, Hong Kong.

Nathan Road is a major traffic artery running through Kowloon, connecting Tsim Sha Tsui in the south to Sham Shui Po in the north. The street is lined continuously with shops, restaurants, and offices that form the backbone of commerce in this part of the city.

The street began in 1861 as Robinson Road and was renamed in 1909 to honor Sir Matthew Nathan, the thirteenth governor of Hong Kong. This change reflects how the road became a symbol of British administration as the city expanded.

The name Golden Mile dates from the post-war years, when the road's shops and restaurants drew visitors in numbers; it is now rarely used. Five MTR stations lie beneath the route, from Tsim Sha Tsui to Prince Edward, and buses such as 1, 1A, 2 and 6 stop along it. St Andrew's Church, completed in 1906, is the oldest Anglican church in Kowloon.

Nathan Road runs 3.6 km from Salisbury Road in Tsim Sha Tsui to Boundary Street in Sham Shui Po. Five MTR stations lie directly beneath it: Tsim Sha Tsui, Jordan, Yau Ma Tei, Mong Kok and Prince Edward, each at a major cross street. Buses such as 1, 1A, 2, 3C and 6 also serve the road, with stops along its length.

This street was the first road built in Kowloon after the territory was handed over by the Qing dynasty to Britain, marking its role as a gateway to modern development in the region. Its straight layout was a deliberate choice of British urban design.
