The 10 Best Flea & Street Markets in Kowloon, China
Delectable dim sum, floating islands, and a one-of-a-kind skyline are just some of Hong Kong’s unique features. Get an eyeful of traditional Chinese architecture in Ngong Ping village, then take the tram to the tippity-top of Victoria Peak for unparalleled views. The rocks and gentle hills of Nan Lian Garden will bring you inner peace, as will a calming cup of tea in a Stanley café. Become one with everything at the Chi Lin Nunnery, a serene Buddhist complex.

There are quite a few places in HK where one can pick loads of live fish (seafood) from countless aquarium bins and get it prepared and served on the spot. Unlike those popular places on Lantau or in Sai Kung, this is definitely not a tourist trap, so decide for yourself if you want to go to a staged show or work to get some experience for yourself. The easiest path to get there would be taking a Kowloon taxi from your hotel or nearest MTR to the corner of Shung Shun and Lei Yue Mun Path Taxi stand (don't expect them to know where that is - other than the Airport, HK taxi drivers always look at you like if they hear of the place you need to go to for 1st time in their life). Surprisingly, the place is very close to the HK center, more so than Sai Kung, with Lantau being a day trip away. Check out the google street view, and see how you navigate from the taxi stand into the paths along the water (and back). You'll walk pass countless fish stores where people wave you in - check them all out and decide what you like, keep in mind, there are lots of those till you reach the end of the walkway. The idea is you buy live seafood and they take it to one of the restaurants where the stuff will be cooked for you, and there you can order things like wine and/or whisky. So, you basically have to check out the restaurants and the seafood stands separately and pick the combination you like. People speak reasonable English and generally are pretty friendly - there are no loads of tourists out there like in the popular places.This makes the experience more real. Be sure to negotiate a deal on the seafood you buy - there is no fixed Walmart price out there, although, generally, locals do not negotiate much. What you negotiate is an assurance you're not being taken for a fool too far

I adore flowers especially orchids so this market was the icing on the cake. Hundred and hundred of bouquets, orchids, bonsai. Everything you can imagine from roses chrysanthemums(another of my favourites) lilies.sunflowers to the rare and unusual. The smells are out of this world. My daughter and I visited on the first day of the Chinese New Year exhibition. it was jammed packed with people and plants A beautiful day of aaaah’s and oooooh’s

This is the area of Ladies Market. They close the street during weekends from 6 to 10pm. There would be buskers performing. Nice singing, especially the group in front of 许留山 dessert shop.

Bags, shoes, video equipment, dash-cams, climbing equipment, electronics and many more. My go-to destination each time on my annual trip to the colony, which incidentally was home for 45 years. The venue is packed with tourists so you're not alone. Most vendors speak a smattering of English. Bear in mind, goods sold are not returnable, so shop wisely. No need to get a tour guide. Jump on the MTR and look for Sham Shui Po stop. At the station look for sign-boards for Ap Liu St.

We visited the Bird Garden, which happened to be near our hotel, and were fascinated by it. Amazing to see how many people spend their day doing nothing but tend to their birds or the birds food - e.g. Crickets and worms. There are a lot of different birds - lovely to see however there are heaps of birds crammed in cages together so if this will upset you don't go!! We found it very interesting to see. The goldfish market and flower market are close by so you could do all 3 in one day. Also in this area is the ladies market - a street with lots of stalls selling all sorts of clothing, trinkets etc. the Prince Edward MTR stop is closest to see these markets. Definitely worth visiting the area - it's a visual feast.

Visited early in morning just as starting to open up. Interesting experience. A negotiator’s paradise although the stand owners can be persistent and one woman in particular followed me all the way out to the street. I waited until the one stand recommended by others opened up and purchased a nice small pendant for $20 from the brother. It looks very nice and is a good reminder of the trip.
