How it's used
Drivers in Hong Kong often refer to multi-storey car parks as 車場 for short. While 停車場 is the standard term, you will frequently hear people specify the type of facility, such as 路邊泊位 for street parking or 室內停車場 for indoor parking.

Common mistake
Do not confuse this with 泊車, which is the verb meaning to park a car. Beginners often incorrectly use 泊車 as a noun to describe the facility itself.
