Central Ordnance Munitions Depot
http://dbpedia.org/resource/Central_Ordnance_Munitions_Depot an entity of type: Thing
The Central Ordnance Munitions Depot was constructed in the late 1930s by British for the World War II to combat the Japanese Invasion as well as to store arms and ammunition for the defence of Hong Kong. The British used "Little Hong Kong", name for the fishing village town of Aberdeen, as a "code name" to refer to the military site and therefore confuse Japanese spies in the local community before the Japanese invasion.

壽臣山軍火庫(英文:Central Ordinance (Munitions) Depot),又譯中央彈藥庫,是香港一個軍事遺跡,位於香港島南區深水灣徑18號,由皇家工兵(British Royal Engineers)於1937年建成,作儲存軍火及武器之用,以應付日益惡化的亞洲政治形勢。軍火庫的興建在當時是軍方高度機密,當時英軍故意將軍火庫暱稱為「小香港」(由香港仔的名字改成),以瞞騙充斥香港的日本間諜。 1941年,日軍進攻香港期間,軍火庫由四個國籍、約60名軍人駐守,包括英籍的(British Royal Army Ordnance Corps)、 (Royal Army Service Corps)、皇家工兵(Royal Engineers);加拿大(Canadian Winnipeg Grenadiers)、印度旁車普營(Punjabi infantrymen)及華籍的香港義勇軍(Hong Kong Volunteer Defence Corps)。部隊一直抵抗日軍猛攻,直到香港投降後兩天(1941年12月27日)才正式投降,是香港守軍最後一個向日本投降的據點。

The Central Ordnance Munitions Depot was constructed in the late 1930s by British for the World War II to combat the Japanese Invasion as well as to store arms and ammunition for the defence of Hong Kong. The British used "Little Hong Kong", name for the fishing village town of Aberdeen, as a "code name" to refer to the military site and therefore confuse Japanese spies in the local community before the Japanese invasion. Following a successful proposal made to the Government of Hong Kong for a commercial adaptive reuse of the underground bunkers in 2002, the Central Ordnance Munitions Depot has been renovated to become wine cellars. This revitalisation project won one of the four Awards of Merit of the 2007 UNESCO Asia-Pacific Heritage Awards for Culture Heritage Conservation.
