Ladies Market, Hong Kong

There are booths of Hong Kong-tour souvenirs, Chinese costumes, bags (a lot of pirate bags of "I'm not a plastic bags" and "Mao Tse Dong's protrait") and cheap electronic devices from China.

What to buy: Not here

What to pay: less than 10 USD

This is THE place to go to if you love shopping at markets! There are all sorts of things available here - clothes, stationery, souvenirs, bags, wallets, hair accessories, watches, jewellery - it's a shopper's paradise! But remember, don't buy anything at the asking price, don't be shy to haggle, and you'll come away with some great bargains!

TIP: One thing I tend to do if I like something but want to pay less is to pick up the item, ask for the price, frown a little at the item, and then haggle, at the last moment you place it down slowly (giving them a chance to lower the price). I walk away if I truly don't like it, but if I do like the price, I then say I will think about it and then look around the rest of the stall. I will always have the option to take up the offer later and it gives them the chance to make a last ditch attempt in tempting me by with another lower price.

TIP: the walkway through the market is very narrow, so be aware of pickpockets.

Miles of market stalls - the name says it all! Ladies Market it really is!

What to buy: Purses, watches, sunglasses, handbags etc everything and anything, u'll find it!

What to pay: Very little, be sure to haggle for at least half price

I had read about the wonderful Ladies Market here in Hong Kong and I just had to come and check it out for myself. I wasn’t looking for anything in particular and thought that if anything caught my eye, I would just purchase it. I didn’t find anything other than a few souvenirs and trinkets to take back home to the family. They do have a large selection of clothing, hand bags, watches and jewelry, and some really beautiful Chinese dolls and small home decors.

What to buy: The market sells about everything you can want or need.

What to pay: Very reasonable.

In this area the stores pour out onto the street and it becomes one large bazaar. To me it was somewhat disappointing because it seemed that the same items were being sold at many of the kiosks, there wasn't a lot of variety. Still, worth a look around for true shopaholics.

Shopping, shopping & more shopping! I couldn't find a more appropriate description for Ladies Street market. Here, you'll find everything that you can ever think of. From souvenirs to buy back for your family & friends, to concert & movie DVDs. Bags, shirts, mahjong sets, shoes, lighters, shades, posters, stickers, etc. And the list goes on... And the best tip I can ever offer is... BARGAIN! Be sure to haggle the price with the owner. If you're not satisfied with it, you can always walk away. Remember, the whole street is yours to shop. Although by doing that, you might get cursed & sweared at in cantonese that you can't really understand.

Tung Choi Street in the Mong Kok District, is home to the Ladies Street Market. The market is one of the most popular markets in Hong Kong, and though it's called the "Ladies Market", it pretty much caters to everyone. Theres womens clothes, mens clothes, momentos, knock offs, and some small local cafe's. It makes for a nice little stroll down Tung Choi Street, and like all the markets, you are expected to bargain!

Ladies Market is actually a street (Tung Choi Street) that has been occupied by the street vendors, which sell mainly no name clothings for women and accessories items. There are also vendors selling items for men and children too.

It's always crowded, especially at night and during the weekends. Be sure to bargain as the vendors always mark up the prices, and definitely keep an eye of your belongings in this crowded market.
