Shopping centres in Hong Kong

Information on the shopping centres and malls across Hong Kong. Details on what is sold, accessibility, and the best ways to partake in one of the city’s favourite pastimes…
Hong Kong is a well-known shopping hub, with iconic open-air markets selling everything from clothing, fresh produce and even goldfish. But as an expat, you're more likely to spend the majority of your retail therapy hours in one of the many climate-controlled shopping centres throughout the city. These sprawling spaces offer everything you could imagine, and can keep you entertained for hours. With cinemas, luxury and high-end shops, restaurants and even ice-skating rinks, you're in store for a rainy day well spent.
While you're never too far away from a sale, the days following Christmas and Chinese New Year offer incredible bargains, and the post-summer clearances are worth setting aside a day or two for, too.
