Markets: Temple Street Night Market
  • Tip Rating:
  • Temple Street has a unique atmosphere that makes it a must-see attraction. Fortune tellers huddle by kerosene lamps next to local chess masters. Street singers perform Cantonese opera. Tables and chairs from stalls selling local delicacies overflow into this street that was named after a nearby temple honouring the goddess Tin Hau. And great bargains abound with an emphasis on items for men.

    Open 4pm - midnight

  • Directions: Jordan MTR Exit A, turn right and walk along Jordan Road for three blocks.

    Temple Street Night Market is everyones favorite market in Hong Kong, and it's easy to see why. After 7pm Temple Street comes alive, fulfilling every bargain hunters fantasies.

    You can pretty much find whatever you are looking for here. Whether it's souviners for family and friends back home, phony Rolexes, Louis Vuitton Replicas, pornographic movies, "I Love Hong Kong" shirts, or Chinese herbal Medicine. You can find all of those, plus a whole lot more.

    There are no set prices here, so it's pretty much expected of you to bargain. Paying for the asking price is just plain crazy.

    If you are a fish lover, then the Gold Fish Markets on Tung Choi Street in the heart of the Mong Kok district is where you want to be. Dozens of shops, one after another, are dedicated to the creatures from under the sea. Whether its a new fish you fancy, are just looking to spruce up your aquarium, or are in some need of some good luck ( Many Chinese people believe that a gold fish properly positioned in the home can bring them good luck ) Tung Choi Street can provide you with all three of those things.

    A great street, that is just mind blowing when you see how many fish are hanging in little plastic bags on boths sides of the road. A must see while in Hong Kong!

    Markets: Ladies Market
  • Tip Rating:
  • This is the place to find inexpensive women's clothes. Anything from lingerie to shoes, jeans to accessories. There are also plenty of leather goods, great knock off handbags and wallets. There are also toys, gadgets, cosmetics and hair accessories as well as Men’s and children’s clothing. A little tough to try on things so be prepared to try over whatever you are wearing.

    The Ladies Market is open from noon to 10:30 p.m.

    The Temple Street Night Market is a large area filled with street vendors and small store fronts selling just about everything. Veggies, meat, toys, clothes, grocery stores, and small restaurants cover every square inch or real estate, but most don't show up until around 9pm, so don't come too early.

    We wandered around here for only 30 minutes to an hour, stopped for dinner, then hit the bars in Kowloon.

    The Project for Public Spaces named the Temple Street Night Market one of60 of the world's Great Public Spaces!

    If you want to shop in Hong Kong, there is nothing like the market shopping that is scattered throughout the city. There is the Bird Market and the Flower Market where there is an assortment of birds and flowers (self-explanatory name). There is also the Ladies Market where you can find virtually anything from accessories to clothing. There is also the Temple Street Market where you can find jade and antiquities if you dare venture out at night. There is also the Jade Market if you are interested in buying jade. This only touches on some of well-known markets that are scattered throughout Hong Kong. Don't be afraid to bargain, it is expected!! And bargain lower than what you are willing to pay because 9 times out of 10 as you walk away, you will get your deal or something close to it!!! Don't forget to pick up your handy-dandy tourist map at the airport or a tourist office to highlight where to go shopping!

    This is the place to go for the imitation designer watches, handbags, purses, CDs, DVDs, etc. You can also find kitschy souvenirs and lots of other random stuff. There is a row of palm-readers and fortune-tellers outside the temple, many of whom speak English. And of course, lots of yummy street food is available. Just be sure to bargain hard!
