Major landmarks including
Langham Place and
Macpherson Playground are situated along the street. The major road
Nathan Road separates the street into two halves. A computer shopping centre is located in the eastern half. The western half was much quieter than the eastern one until the completion of Langham Place in late 2004. Shui Yuet Temple (), located at 90 Shantung Street and built in 1927, is dedicated to
Guanyin. It is listed as a
Grade III historic building. A much debated project by the
Urban Renewal Authority may modify the eastern part of the street substantially. ==See also==
