Praya was a term used in 19th-century Hong Kong to refer to a promenade by the waterfront. The name comes from the Portuguese word praia, which means "beach," but in China it came to mean a stone-faced waterfront road. In Hong Kong, it was a broad road running parallel along the harbour in front of the city. HSBC and Dent & Co. were just some of the major companies based in the area.
