Lyndhurst Terrace (擺花街) is a street in Central of Hong Kong. Building on the slope in southern Central, the terrace links Hollywood Road and Wellington Street on different levels. In the middle it meets the junction with Gage Street and Cochrane Street, also the Central-Mid-Levels escalators.

The native name 擺花 (pai fa) literally means flower putting. That is flower display and selling. It is a traditional market for selling flowers. Some stalls of florists turns into shops in surrounding streets.

The terrace was named after John Singleton Copley Lyndhurst, an Assistant Magistrate. [1]
