Hong Kong’s shopping districts

Hong Kong is a bustling Asian city. While sure to be full of fun and excitement many American visitors may want to stay somewhere familiar which makes it convenient that Disneyland has a location here. Though the adventuresome traveler will definitely enjoy their stay at a Hong Kong hotel outside the amusement park equally well.

For those who prefer to venture out at night or aren’t quite ready to go to bed yet don’t worry that you will miss out entirely on the shopping markets of Hong Kong. The famous Temple Street Night Market comes to life at dusk, when most would be asleep. Traffic stops, people swarm and hundreds of little stalls magically appear. Carts bulge with goods ranging from local goods to wares from around the world nestled between food stalls serving all kind of local snacks and dishes. Much like malls around the world the sound of local Cantonese-pop music can be heard through the sound system and you might catch a live performance of Chinese street opera.

Those who make it out during the day do reap the rewards of being active then. The sheer number of attractions can be intimidating without a plan. Those who would shop will have to see the Jade Market, where one can find jade in many forms and colors for affordable prices, or hit up the Ladies Market though be prepared for the ultimate in competitive shopping experiences. With the sheer number of markets in this city it’s a good thing there are boutique hotel s to take your hauls back to.

For those who are more into the natural sights or historical it’s advised to take a tour of Hong Kong National Geopark where one might encounter fossils of marine and terrestrial creatures that date from 400 million years ago to 10 millions years ago in the surrounding rocks.
