Once Upon A Cantonese Winter: Causeway Bay
Feb 21, 2011 — We had a brief tour of Causeway Bay, one of
Hong Kong’s major shopping districts. It can be compared to Tokyo’s Shibuya and
New York’s Times Square because of the large number of pedestrians crossing Hennessy
Road.

Causeway Bay is the shopping counterpart of Tsim Sha Tsui. Here
you can find a lot of shopping malls, department stores, high-end flagship
stores, and street markets.

Sogo – largest Japanese-owned department store in Hong Kong
ooooh... a Louis Vuitton loot
There are many other areas to look out for when you’re in
Causeway Bay like the street markets at Jardine’s Bazaar and Jardine’s Crescent
(where I scored some cheap harem pants and tops during my trip in 2009), Times
Square – a 16-storey shopping mall that has around 200+ shops and Fashion Walk.
Ironically, we didn’t shop. Not even a single shirt. We just
dropped by the Wellcome Superstore at Great Gorge Street to buy some chocolates
and other snacks before heading back to Tsim Sha Tsui.
