位於九龍半島的彌敦道，從半島南端的尖沙咀，向北延伸至太子的界限街，全長約三點八公里。彌敦道最初取名羅便臣道，後為紀念擴建這條大道的港督彌敦爵士，在一九〇九年易名，沿用至今。
「也許，我想拍下的，不只是眼前美麗的景象，而是那些不斷流逝的記憶。」
二〇〇五年的彌敦道，今天看來會否陌生？修訂版保留原版照片，增訂文字，見證十年來彌敦道的變化。
彌敦道自北至南貫穿太子、旺角和尖沙嘴，沿途包括地標及建築半島酒店、重慶大廈、九龍公園、九龍清真寺暨伊斯蘭中心等，全長約3.8公里，是九龍市中心的大動脈。攝影鏡頭下的彌敦道全景合成圖像，既親切又陌生，見證十年來彌敦道的變化。

No landscape ever stays the same, although in memories and photographs, we can try to keep things just as they are. If there was ever a landscape in flux and in need of documentation, it would be Nathan Road. One of Hong Kong’s longest and oldest thoroughfares, it’s home to an ever-changing jumble of advertisements, shops, restaurants, and residences—run through by an endless flow of foot and vehicular traffic. To wander Nathan Road is to know the pulse of the city.
In 2005, designer–photographer Kenneth Lo set out to document this main artery of Hong Kong, one frame at a time. Nathan Road is a side-by-side composite of those images, forming a complete picture of the entire 3.6 kilometres. With its accordion fold binding, you can choose to either discover each neighbourhood one page at a time or unfurl it like a scroll for a visual stroll downtown—wherever or whenever you are.
This 2016 revised reprint edition presents some of the changes along the thoroughfare since 2007, when this books was first published, and since 2005, when all the images were taken.
