Chinese calligraphy.
You can buy a small piece, like the one in the picture, unframed, for as little as HK$35. Of course, you can pay much more for larger pieces of hiqh quality work. Leave a Comment Theme: ArtDirections: Stanley Market.

Stanley market is a well known and popular shopping attraction for both locals and visitors on the south side of Hong Kong Island.
Early in the morning while my family were sleeping I escaped and went alone to shop here, ha..ha.. but i forgot to bring my digicam, this travel is not complete without any shopping experience, Instead of taking taxi I chose to take mini bus just 30 minutes away from causeway bay.
Stanley has lots of bargain buys in the main street, you can choose from the locals to international brands of clothings, shoes, chinese craft,bags, souveniers etc... you can ask the special price of any of the items just make sure you know how to make bargaining.
I shopped most for my hubby's shirt, bags for me and stuffs for my kids.

As soon as I got to Stanley Market I ran up nad down the aisles like a mad woman making sure I checked out everything before I spent all my money. The first shops you see there are basically the same shops over and over again. And everyones prices are about the same. It takes about 3 hours to walk it at a nice pace.
1. Christmas ornaments and animal ornaments made of decorative painted metal and enamel. $2-5
2. Children slippers with dragon faces and bell$4
3. Embroidered sheets $20-50
4. Scarves made of silk, handpainted or pashima, hand knit or fur (I bought for all my friends and they loved them soooo much)$5-40
5. Colorful Felt new year animal wall hanging $4
6. Masks made of wood or bone of mythological creatures$10 for small or $30+ for large
7. Cool boots $15 (leopard print) $15 (blue suede with pretty buttons)
8. Purses of tapestry and bead work $15+
9. Custom made stamp of porclein $10
I am not much of a bargain haggler, I just ask "Can you do a little better in price" and they usually round off .
Or I'll say "No tax today", they laugh and give me a better discount. Leave a Comment Theme: OtherDirections: When you shop at Stanley Market, make sure you eat at one of the many restaurants by the water.

Stanley Market located on Hong Kong island has been established for many tears, there must be well over 100 stalls selling clothing for men, women and children, also an assortment of gadgets ranging from binoculars, knives, travel goods,ice cream, drinks etc. Prices are low and you are expected to bargain down the price. Many well known brands are on sale, some with the tags cut out. Leave a Comment Theme: Women's ClothesAddress: Stanley, Hong Kong IslandDirections: Catch bus # 6, I think we caught it from Hennessy streetwill take approx 40 minutes, a very scenic ride. Suggest you check with your hotel, also bus numbers on the Hong Kong Tourist map.

Stanly Market is in the south of HK island, but it is definately very worth to go...
Lots of great stuff you would find here, gifts, clothes, Chinese crafts, restaurants...all kinds of shops in this area...Big $$$$$$ !!!!
REMEMBER TO BARGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!
Because there are so many shops there, you got chances to think and compare, don't just buy it when you find something you like at beginning, make sure you check all the prices from ALL the stores!!! (well..if you're lazy..then just forget about it..haha..) Leave a Comment Theme: GiftsAddress: take 260 bus from exchange square bus stopDirections: It needs time to get there, so be sure you got plenty of time.. Also, it's a wide area, you will have lots of time to kill there!!!

There are a number of stores selling artwork in Stanley Market. There are some beautiful original paintings and the prices are (relatively) good once you hit about the HK$500 mark. Watch out for "lithographs" though- we asked about one print, was told it was a lithograph, and upon closer inspection it turned out to be a color photocopy. It seemed like there were two types of shops: those selling original works, and those selling "lithos" and factory-produced originals, both inexpensive. If you're looking for the latter, check all the shops before buying as the prices for the same items fluctuated quite a bit. The better original shops would not discount much. I waited while a couple tried to haggle over a beautiful HK$900 original oil portrait. The shopkeep agreed to come down HK$100, and only after the couple pointed out the frame was damaged. I was hoping the they'd walk away and I could scoop it up, but they bought it. The nicest original gallery we found was called "Lok Man Art Gallery" at 48-50 Main Street.
Original artwork. If it's expensive make sure it's signed and get a certificate.
HK$200 to HK$40000 (Nice original works starting at about HK$500-HK$1000) Theme: Art

Stanley market located on Hong Kong Island is a cornucopia of bargain shopping. Hundreds of street stalls huddled together in this quaint little shopping area town amidst restaurants, pubs, temples and the bay it is a destination for tourists looking for bargains. And, that's exactly what you will find here. Example: I found a cotton burgundy shirt/jacket for HK$10.00 which basically translates to about $US$1.50. Yes you read that right $1.50 and that's not unusual. There are souvenirs, clothing, jewelry, artwork and more that I can't even list all at incredible low prices. These stalls sell at below wholesale as do many retail stores within Hong Kong. If you want to do shopping, this is THE place to go. Of course there are your regular high end shopping malls such as Harbour City in Kowloon though you will pay what you'd pay at home at these malls.
Clothes, souvenirs, artwork, shoes, bags and Oh, did I say clothes?
Below wholesale except on shoes. Leave a Comment
