Queen Victoria Street (zh-cpcy|c=域多利皇后街|p=Yùduōlì Huánghòu Jiē|cy=wik6 do1 lei6 wong4 hau6 gaai1) is a street in Central, Hong Kong Island, Hong Kong. The street links Queen's Road Central, Des Voeux Road Central and Connaught Road Central. It is where Central Market and the headquarters of Hang Seng Bank locates.
The street is named after Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom. Although its Chinese name is a mistranslation of "Queen", meaning queen consort instead of queen regnant, it has never been changed to reflect its proper dedication.
