Shopping Trip

The bustling street market in Stanley is ideal for those shoppers who like to practise their bargaining skills. Stanley Market has an array of shops and stalls, ranging from brand name clothing to sports shoes, art, woodcarvings, ornaments and leather goods. This is an ideal place to pick up some souvenirs for friends and relatives and you can also wander along the waterfront lined with bars and restaurants.

Your next destination will be a jewellery factory in the harbour-side area of Aberdeen, where you will have an opportunity to purchase any of the gems which take your fancy.

Visit Hollywood Road and Cat Street, a small lane filled with stalls selling curios and antiques -it’s a perfect place to find woodblock prints, china, porcelain, Buddha statues, snuff, perfume bottles and much more. Even if you decide not to purchase any of the unusual and interesting items on sale, the experience and atmosphere of being in amongst Hong Kong’s bustling streets and markets is sure to enthral you.

One of the first traditional-style temples built 100 years ago, Man Mo has a great canopy dominating the temple with huge hanging coils of incense. The incense is donated by those making offerings to the Taoist gods of literature (Man) and war (Mo).
