shopping in hongkong
Flower Street 花园街 hua yuan (fa yuen in cantonese).
open in the late morning to evening. Don't visit it at night.
Although you cant do much bargaining here, the price is cheaper than ladies market.
There is a lot of shoes store at the sides and the price is cheap, good for people who are not into brands.
There are also stalls selling food and fruits. More interesting than ladies market which is tourist trap and good for people who need more fruits to stay healthy on a trip
I visited two fresh food market in hongkong. One is nelson street (near langham place hotel)
Another one is at Bowrington Road
The rest of the standard ladies market, temple street. There are shopping malls at most of the MTR stops. Tsim Sha Tsui and CAuseway should the most number of them. A lot of new shopping malls opened at TST over the past few years. You can look at the shop directory before deciding which mall to visit. Sasa and Bonjour are good place for cheap cosmetic and toiletries.
Lung Shing Pharmacy 龍城大藥房. 28 Granville Rd Tsim Sha Tsui b2 exit. they have a larger variety than Sasa and Bonjour but the place is very very crowded with locals and foreigners.
I want to visit jusco hkd10 shop when i am in hongkong, is cheaper than daiso. http://www.jusco.com.hk/eng/10_plaza/index_shop.htm
random in hong kong
view from TST ferry Terminal
Lan Kwai Fong 蘭桂坊 Where the pubs and bars are located. Central MTR, exit D2 The photos: left, a wine and dine event held in november The photos: right, a beautiful coach store |
Times square... shopping time..
For those looking for cheap shopping, can try jardine's crescent located at causeway bay.
Temple street's fortune telling stalls. There is palmistry, tarots and various method of fortune telling
Mongkok. Ladies street is located somewhere near here.
shu uemura deepsea water in the toilet
Star avenue. Worth taking a walk as you can enjoy hongkong night scenery for free.
This photo was taken a few years ago.
I was curiously about the turf club culture so I went to take a look.
Hongkong traditional brand of cosmetics. It is available in singapore but I think is more expensive. They have vending machines at various location selling some of the products. There are also actual shops. However, the packaging is not fanastic so the Lu Shui 花露水 will evaporate but it really smell nice
Christmas in Hongkong a few year back. Last year, they have christmas event which was linked to tiffany and co.This year, it starting on 25 novemember.
Capture on the bus of A21 on the way to the airport.

Supermarket in Hongkong
There are lot of 7-11 k-mart and other convenience stores at Hong Kong. When I visited HOng kong last year, I saw a few small supermarkets popping around the TST and mongkok.
I like to visit supermarket when I travelled because different countries have their different snacks and food. Moreover, the price is usually cheaper and is a good place to get gifts and interesting food.
This supermarket is one of my favourite. It is located at Tung Chung citygate outlet. It is like singapore hypermart.
Drop by if are visiting citygate at Tung Chung.
Random Hongkong food
Cherikoff
G29 Allied Plaza, 760 Nathan Rd., Prince Edward,
Daily 7am-10:30pm
Their cookies come in a dozen different flavors, crowned with classic toppings like jam, cherry, nuts or chocolate drop, each with a buttery crispiness.
For a healthier option, try their egg white-only variety, made with sesame and green tea. Try their all-time famous nougats. Besides the original flavour, there are healthier options made with prune and walnut.
Just a random bakery. If you interested in just buying lao po bing or wife's biscuit for your family and packaging is not a major concern. You can try the normal bakeries along the street like along TST or MOngkok. and buy one to try and find one that suit your tastebuds before buying a dozen back. The price is usually a fraction of those branded store. However, remember to bring your own air tight container.
Bought a coupon from valuup.com. Do not remember the actual price, but it was valued for money because it is a place at kowloon with a nice view and ambience.
The eyebar at isquare. Not sure how pricing without the coupon.
If you spot this card, remember to try hong Kong traditional icecream.
I tried macdonalds too because there have some seasonal stuff not available in singapore. for example, the chocolate puff.
Some random things we ate.
starbucks, taste the same.
xu liu xiang
They were giving out free coke.
smiley tart.
vitasoy red bean and milk tea.
random icecream and red bean snack
