What to do and see in Hong Kong Island, China: The Best Gift & Specialty Shops

January 21, 2022 Brandee Mangan

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.

Reviewed By kimsenogles - Hong Kong, China

Located in a hip industrial area, Retykle is a circular fashion concept that buys and sells pre-loved and new-with-tags overstock baby, kids, maternity and nursery gear. Conveniently near the Wong Chuk Hang MTR and bus stops it's a quick trip to get to from most of HK Island. I've picked up some incredible bargains on really great brands like Ralph Lauren, Petit Bateau, Adidas etc and have found it particularly great for small kid shoes. I also attended a cloth nappy workshop there which was fab.

Great Food Hall

Reviewed By TheSacrilicious - Shenzhen, China

This has got to be the most AMAZING Fresh food supermarket I have ever been in. The range of gourmet and packaged foods is simply phenomenal. It caters for everyone - busy people who only have 45 mins for lunch can choose from the astonishing range of fresh made salads and Sandwiches such as Roast Beef and Brie, Chicken Tandoori or classic Pastrami with Pickles and Relish. There is also a hot food bar which serves roast meats like beef, turkey, chicken or ham with weigh n pay options. The deli section will leave your mouth watering with vast selections of cold cut meats, olives, and packaged cheeses. But the most amazing sight to behold is the Cheese Room - a room specifically devoted to imported hard, soft and blue cheeses from france, Italy, UK, Spain and NZ. The range is simply to die for. Adjacent the cheese room is the Watsons wine cellar for all your wine, beer and spirits. The service here is just wonderful and there are so many imported food I miss from home such as Tim Tams and Nandos sauce. I am a frequent visitor here on any trip to HK. Make this your port of call for any picnic supplies you might need. ????????????????
