Western Market
One of the best places to buy souvenirs in Hong Kong, this
indoor market is held in a four-storey red brick colonial building
that was constructed in 1906. After extensive renovation it
re-opened in 1991 and now occupies an entire block at the western
end of Central Hong Kong. The building houses a variety of shops
and stalls that sell a range of products from jade curios and
cloissan jewellery to assorted silks and fabrics. From here one can
hop onto Hong Kong's ancient double-decker tram headed for Wan
Chai, Causeway Bay and Happy Valley.
