Tsim Sha Tsui East (尖沙咀東 or simply 尖東) is an area east of Chatham Road South reclaimed from Hung Hom Bay in the 1970s. Many restaurants, office buildings and hotels are located in the area. The Tsim Sha Tsui East Promenade links the area with the Hong Kong Cultural Centre near the Clock Tower. In 2004, the Kowloon-Canton Railway's East Rail opened a new station. East Tsim Sha Tsui is an interchange station with Tsim Sha Tsui station on the MTR Tsuen Wan Line. Unlike other KCR stations, it is underground near Blackhead Point. An extensive tunnel system was built for pedestrians to access the most popular destinations in Tsim Sha Tsui. There is currently massive ground-level works taking place throughout several roads in the area, so the best way to access destinations is through the underground walkway.
