It is known as a shopping paradise.
I have long heard that the air-conditioning in shopping malls in Hong Kong is particularly adequate, which inevitably makes Rabbit Baby Xiaomang, who is particularly afraid of the cold, flinch. Fortunately, Hong Kong is rich in shopping resources, and there are many characteristic streets to stroll in addition to shopping malls.
There are countless blocks to visit in Hong Kong, and the more prosperous areas are mainly concentrated in Mong Kok, Tsim Sha Tsui and Causeway Bay.
characteristic block NO1: Nathan Road
Nathan Road is a boundary street extending from Tsim Sha Tsui to the north of Kowloon Peninsula, which makes people feel that it is very long. Walking from Tsim Sha Ju subway station to Jordan is the busiest section of the street, with jewelry and gold shops (Zhou Shengsheng, Xie Ruilin, Chow Tai Fook, etc.), electrical appliances shops and medicine shops-Nathan Road is more beautiful after dark, with all kinds of neon signs flashing brightly, and crowds of people rushing around like crucian carp.
There are many small shops here, and the goods in each shop can make people dazzle. The feeling of leaving the owner's front foot and entering the west home after trying this one will definitely make every girl who has a persistent pursuit of beauty exclaim: Hong Kong is really a paradise for women. The "Tide Zone" located on the side of Xinhe Center (58A Nathan Road) must go if you have time! It's the trend plaything for teenagers, with all kinds of avant-garde clothing stores, Japanese classic cartoon boutiques, movie poster franchise stores, sneakers stores, fashion accessories stores and other personalized colors. It can be said that it is the "shopping mall mobile" with the most people in this block.

NO2: Granville Road
It's a pity if you can't get to Hong Kong. Why do you say this? There are three reasons. First, on both sides of this small street, which runs through the east of Tsim Sha Tsui and Nathan Road, there are large and small fashion export shops for men and women, which can make the shopping crowd enjoy themselves. All kinds of clothes, ladies' headdresses and jewelry sold here are at the forefront of fashion, and the prices are not very expensive. Of course, Hong Kong people do business differently from the mainland. If your counter price is far from the list price, the store owner will not invite you back. Secondly, in addition to the franchise stores of Sasha and H2O, the "Dragon City Pharmacy" that has been in operation for decades must be seen. In addition to selling medicines, the most exciting thing is that the prices of cosmetics sold here are much cheaper than those on the market, and the quality is also very guaranteed. Lancome, SK-II, Clinique, H2O and other cosmetics brands that Chinese people like can be found here, but the only thing that makes people unable to do is that due to the small store, Third, the business hours here will not end until midnight, which is different from the practice that the business street in Beijing or even Shanghai will definitely shut your door at 9 o'clock in the evening. Whether it is after a small gathering of friends or a conference banquet, or after visiting all the big shopping malls (the big shopping malls in Hong Kong usually close at around 21: 3), it will make people more comfortable to visit here again.
Transportation: Exit B1 of Tsim Sha Tsui subway station goes straight along Nathan Road, and then turns right to Granville Road

Characteristic block NO3: Men's Street, Women's Street
Women's Street and Temple Street are about one stop apart. They are all "open-air street vendors' streets" that are open to the public and demolished at night, and they are all open-air street vendors' streets after 7: every night.
Women's Street, also known as Tongcai Street, is named "Women's Street" because more than 5 stalls are almost put out every afternoon. Most of them sell all kinds of cheap goods, of which 5% sell very cheap women's products, such as fashion, jewelry, cosmetics, socks and underwear. Apart from open-air stalls, there are also small shops selling daily necessities. If you can find the "ball book" that has been in business here for ten years, you can buy Vietnamese embroidered shoes and beaded embroidered shoes that are very popular in Hong Kong at only a few tens of Hong Kong dollars. It is said that even Kelly Chen has a pair of such shoes.
Temple Street is a famous "Men's Street" in Hong Kong. There are many kinds of goods sold here, including clothes, electrical appliances, toys, lighters, men's clothes and ties, suitcases, clocks and watches, antique works of art and handicrafts from various countries. There are also many foreign clothing shops on both sides of the street that make cheap jeans and suits. Here, you can also have a taste of traditional Hong Kong cuisine, such as the famous stinky tofu. At night, there are many fortune-telling and fortune-reading stands on the roadside, and there are also performances of singing operas and performing arts. You like to experience the rich local color of Hong Kong, how can you miss this unique "civilian nightclub"?

characteristic block NO4: sports street-garden street
garden street can be divided into two sections. If you want to experience the daily life of ordinary people in Hong Kong, come here. At 8 o'clock or 9 o'clock in the morning, the dazzling open-air stalls will all "wake up", and the crowds and fresh market breath will pounce. It's somewhat similar to some morning markets in Beijing. Although things here are low-grade, their prices are naturally cheap. The cheapest T-shirts for children's wear are only HK$ in 1 yuan, and some two adult T-shirts are only HK$ in 15 yuan. The price of backpacks ranges from 19.9 yuan to 34 yuan, and some jewelry can be bought in 5 yuan. VCD game software costs HK$ 15 yuan each, and there are many kinds of bedding, belts and headgear for you to choose from. ?
The most interesting part is the section of Garden Street near Mong Kok (that is, the section cut by Shandong Street and Argyle Street), because it is a concentrated place for sporting goods stores, and you can catch all the most popular sportswear here. Shops here are engaged in brand-name sports shoes, sportswear, number emblems, etc. Many styles are quite fashionable and unique, which are hard to find in sportswear stores in big cities such as Beijing and Shanghai. If your eyes are unique enough, you may be able to buy "limited" products for sale. The brands sold here are Nike, Reebok, adidas, Puma Sport, Lootto, Converse and so on. At the same time, there are many shops here that provide customized jerseys and screen printing services, but please ask clearly when the jerseys are made and whether they can be mailed out.
Transportation: near Prince/Mong Kok subway station
Business hours: open-air stalls from 9: to 19: , street shops from 11: to 23: 3.
characteristic block NO5: toy street-Taiyuan street
although hong kong is a shopping paradise for ladies, it is not childlike to come to Taiyuan street and see all kinds of toys. The mini remote-controlled car with flashing red light and engine noise, the heroic and powerful < < Star Wars > > story characters, the quaint and salty egg superman, and the eye-opening "Gundam" fighting toys of mobile suit, Digimon and Hong Kong TV hits are really dazzling. Love toys, childlike innocence, you might as well go to "Toy Horse Ruler" (ground floor of shop C), "Hongxing Toys" (shop C on the 19th) and "Risheng Toys" (shop C on the 18th) to look for something that can pin your dreams and exert your imagination!
Address: Exit A1 or A3 of Wan Chai Subway Station, about 5 minutes' walk
Tip: If you have time, the Stanley Market, the clothing store at the exit of Changsha Road in Tubu, Sham Shui Po, the local factory clothing at the industrial building in Kanminyu Street in Hongshi, the jade market near Gansu Street in Yau Ma Tei, and Liyuan Dongxi Street near Des Voeux Road Central are also good places to choose things. As long as you have physical strength, patience and vision, you can enjoy bargaining.
