Hong Kong Island Shopping

Where to Shop in Hong Kong Island

Hong Kong Island Shopping

Practically anywhere in the greater region of Hong Kong is a shopping dream come true with products ranging from kitsch to glitz to sports to nightwear all available and at advantageous prices.

Hong Kong Island is no exception and what isn't for sale here isn't worth having.

Causeway Bay

Causeway Bay is perennially popular with tourists. From department stores, to small boutiques and bargain stalls, everything can be found here in close proximity. Of course, you will have to count on a whole day and limitless energy to plough through this shopping carnival. Here, you will find many shops specialising in shoes, electrical appliances and fashion for young people. Food and fashion predominate if you take a stroll through the many shopping malls, including Times Square, World Trade Centre, Lee Garden Two, The Lee Gardens, Lee Theatre Plaza, Fashion Island and Island Beverley. In Square, in Windsor House, is known for computer products.

Wan Chai

Wan Chai may get sleazy at night but during the day and evening it's hard to beat as an upbeat shopping venue. Spring Garden Lane is an excellent destination to pick up clothes at very competitive prices. The market stalls sell products originally meant for export, meaning both quality and prices are very competitive, making a win-win situation for shoppers. It also connects to local wet and dry markets, and so offers a multicultural experience in the heart of town. Spring Garden Lane is off Queen's Road East and runs to Johnston Road. Along Queen's Road East you can find a number of excellent rattan and Chinese furniture shops where you can arrange shipment home of purchases, no matter how large.

Admiralty

Admiralty is also famous for its brand-name luxury goods stores and malls. Pacific Place, one of Hong Kong's most popular malls (and largest), is the ideal place to go in this area for a luxury shopping experience and a glimpse into Hong Kong's finery. You'll find perfect gift ideas within its 140-plus outlets, including the Lane Crawford department store and any number of top designer label shops. Pacific Place and another shopping centre called Queensway is connected to the Admiralty MTR Station.

Central

Hong Kong's Central district is the place to see towering skyscrapers and marbled shopping atriums with their vast, Roman-like malls. The Landmark, The Galleria, Prince's Building, Alexandra House and the ifc mall (featuring Hong Kong's tallest building) are the main shopping centres, with loads of designer shops selling exclusive brand names. This, to put it simple, is shopaholic heaven. Stanley Street is known for photographic equipment at advantageous rates. Hollywood Road is Hong Kong's antiques row, above the Central business district. Further west towards Sheung Wan is a bustle of sidewalk hawkers where you can work on your bargaining skills. Still in Central, Li Yuen Street East and Li Yuen Street West are known locally as 'the lanes' and they're a fascinating hotchpotch of stalls hawking everything from factory reject clothing, watches and costume jewellery to rolling luggage and shoes. Situated between Queen's Road Central and Des Voeux Road Central, the market is open daily from 10:00 – 19:00.

Markets

Western Market

A Declared Monument, Western Market in Sheung Wan is a handsomely renovated Edwardian building (built 1906) filled with Chinese handicraft stores and fabric shops. It is situated at the corner of Connaught Road and Morrison Street, Sheung Wan. The area to the west is famous for its small Chinese-style shops selling dried seafood and medicinal herbs. At present, it is the oldest market building surviving in Hong Kong and serves a useful function accommodating theme restaurant and boutique shops that have turned the building and the vicinity into a place for lifestyle shopping and leisure activities.

Stanley Village

Stanley Market is a veritable cornucopia of shops, stalls and restaurants. Its celebrated lanes are jam-packed with vendors selling paintings, handicrafts and even furniture, silk collectibles, curios and lots of souvenirs.
