Origin of place names in Hong Kong The name of Hong Kong is related to spices. During the Song and Yuan dynasties, Hong Kong was administratively under the Guangdong province of Dongguan. From the Ming Dynasty onwards, a small harbor in the southern part of Hong Kong Island was a distribution port for spices from southern Guangdong, and was known as "Hong Kong" because of the spices produced in Dongguan, Guangdong. It is said that the spices transhipped from Hong Kong at that time were of such high quality that they were known as the "treasures of Hainan", and many local people in Hong Kong were also engaged in the business of planting spices, and Hong Kong, together with the spices it planted, gained great fame. Soon this spice was listed as a tribute to the emperor, and created a flourishing incense production and transportation industry at that time. Later, the cultivation and transportation of spices gradually declined, but the name Hong Kong has been retained.
