Stanley Market

Located on the other side of Hong Kong island, this waterfront promenade stocked with bargains is well-known by every taxi driver. Along Main Street, look for supple bed linens at Tong’s Sheets and Linens (#55; 852-2813 0337) or add some colorful Chinese peasant paintings to your walls from Cottage Gallery (#61, 852-2813 1515). Cashmere aficionados male and female load up on the cuddly stuff at Fook Tak Ho (#40A, 852-2813 2002) and China Town (#39, 852-2813 0068) while women can tap their inner Suzy Wong with a traditional silk cheongsam from Lotus Village (#17, 852-2813 1233).
