Hong Kong - Mongkok and Vicinity

Definitely in Hong Kong's must do list is visiting lively Mongkok! They're selling almost anything here. It's a treat for the eyes. Have fun!

And, here's another note from Wikipedia: 
Mong Kok (also spelt Mongkok), is an area in the Yau Tsim Mong District on Kowloon Peninsula, Hong Kong. Before the 1994 merger, Mong Kok was part of the Mong Kok District. The Prince Edward area occupies the northern part of Mong Kok.



The district is characterized by a mixture of old and new multi-story buildings, with shops and restaurants at street level and commercial or residential units above. Major industries in Mong Kok are retail, restaurants (including fast food) and entertainment.

According to Guinness World Records, Mong Kok has the highest population density in the world (mean 130,000 per km2 or 340,000 per mi2) and with a development multiple of four.



Young and not so young.
Yeah, a lot of tourists were Chinese too!


Street food stores always on the corner
Thirsty? or Hungry? Have a break from shopping and grab a bite.
At first look, I thought they were tomatoes of some sort. Read. Strawberries!
Fruits!!! 


Phone accessories... or whatever :)
A lot of Jades!!


I bought 3 of them for 15HKD. Boy, girl and castle.
Shirts for the kids and feeling kids.
Aww, I was surprised to see they're selling here plants too!




Shopping = Hong Kong. Truly. Blouses and dress range from 40-80HKD.
With the fabric and the designs, it's not bad at all!
