Cityplaza (Chinese: 太古城中心), located in Taikoo Shing in the Eastern District of Hong Kong Island, is one of the shopping malls operated by Swire Properties (太古地產). Having a total of six floors, the mall is the largest shopping hub on Hong Kong Island. There are also three large commercial buildings, Cityplaza One, Cityplaza Three and Cityplaza Four. A popular ice skating rink, Cityplaza Ice Palace, is located at 1/F Cityplaza.
Cityplaza constantly updates its seasonal decoration, and also has frequent art, sport and other exhibitions in the public space near the MTR station.
Cityplaza was completed in 1982. As there was no MTR connection yet, double decker buses were used as a free shuttle service when the Island Eastern Corridor expressway (東區走廊) was finished in 1984.
There are six stories in Phase I, with many locations having changed.
The 1/F used to be a Standard Chartered Bank with the remaining space for car parking, until 1987 when a big renovation saw the area converted into retail stores, including Marks & Spencer.

They shaved your head.
Where's all your hair.

The doctor said,
"You should have took the bus instead."
All you could hear
was kachunk, kachunk, kachunk.
All you could hear
was the doctor putting staples in this punk.
He could have died that day.
Which means that he would not be here.
He would have gone away,
friends and family we'd shed our tears.
But the good thing would be
is that we would always know.
He would be living
