China
One of the few remaining typical local open markets which sells fresh vegetables, seafood, and meat, among other things. Busiest in the morning and the evening (right after office hours when the locals go and get fresh food for their dinner)
the government has planned to 'renovate' some of the streets in the area, and many stalls/stores will be closed if the plan goes ahead. Go see it before it disappears forever.
Gage Stree and Graham Street and around, Central, Hong Kong
I would definitely recommend going to Hong Kong and hiring a private boat to see the different islands and visiting the local markets.
From Catriona (age 11).
This is one of the best street markets in Hong Kong. You can find very affordable clothes and souvenirs. A beautiful and relaxed beach is part of the bargain, as are wonderful restaurants and bars. Murray House is a restored colonial building that was dismantled and moved to Stanley from its site in Centra. It houses lots of restaurants. A special mention to the Spanish Restaurant: fantastic food and service.
South side of Hong Kong Island. Bus 6, 6A, 6X or 260 from Exchange Square bus terminus in Central. MTR to Chai Wan station Exit C and catch the green minibus 16M
