Top 10 Places to Shop
-
1. Harbour City
There are at least 700 shops in this vast agglomeration of malls stretching the length of Canton Road. It comprises the Ocean Terminal, Ocean Centre and Golden Gateway complexes. For serious shoppers only.
-
2. Granville Road
Great for souvenir T-shirts, all manner of big label knock-offs and factory seconds. Also top value at chain stores like Bossini and Giordano.
-
3. Joyce
Founder Joyce Ma has hit hard times but remains a Hong Kong icon. Her flagship store is in Central, but the Nathan Road outlet is also impressive, particularly if you have a penchant for Prada.
-
4. Rise Commercial Building
It doesn’t look much from outside, but within you’ll discover a trendsetter’s utopia.
-
5. Beverley Centre
This was the original beacon of cool in TST. Floor after floor of mini-boutiques from young local designers.
-
6. Davidoff
If cigars are your thing, there’s an impressive array of stogies here.
-
7. Star House
Top place for computers, software and all things geeky. Don’t be afraid to bargain.
-
8. Toys ’R’ Us
Probably their biggest branch in Hong Kong. Kids will love it, your bank manager may not.
-
9. Fortress
If you’re after electronic goods and baffled by the sheer number of shops around TST, chain store Fortress is a good bet. Other shops may advertise cheaper prices, but not all dealers are honest.
-
10. Pacino Wan
One of Hong Kong’s best-known fashion tyros; the Chinese Vivienne Westwood. Nothing is sacred – not even Her Brittanic Majesty, whose visage can be seen looking most unamused on Wan’s lurid creations.
