Temple Street Night Market
Temple Street Night Market (daily 5-11pm) is the most famous market in Kowloon, crammed with stalls selling tourist-oriented gear, including clothes (for men particularly), Bruce Lee dolls and electrical knick-knacks, household goods, watches, cheap CDs and jewellery, while fortune-tellers and herbalists set up stalls in the surrounding streets. If you’re lucky, there’ll also be impromptu performances of Cantonese opera. About halfway up the street you’ll see an undercover area of alfresco seafood restaurants with wobbly tables and stools: a couple of plates of sea snails, prawns, mussels or clams, with a beer or two, won’t be expensive (fish often is though fix all prices in advance), and it’s a great place to stop for a while and take in the atmosphere. Some of the stalls even have formal English menus, if you want to know exactly what you’re getting.
