Since my last visit here 4 years ago, much of the stores have been closed. Many of the stores now have been taken over by phone, computers or even food stalls. I even saw one of stores were now an adult toy store, which is a very weird place to be. There are still plenty of choices to chose from, there were many businesses that have switch over to toys as well. I am both a toy and video game geek, so I was very happy. Unlike some of the other specialize areas of shopping in HK, like the computer shopping area has buildings and blocks having the same stuff. The Oriental 188 is very isolated, they do have one building fill with games and stuff, but nothing surrounding it. So if you are looking for a game hunting adventure that would last ALL day, you may be slightly disappointed. If not, fantastic place to go to.

BEWARE OF SCAM PHONE REPAIR HERE: IMPRESSION DIGITAL…read more They stole my phone! I dropped off a $1,000 Note 8 phone and they kept it! I went to get it the next day as they were to fix the glass and they were closed. They stayed closed for 2 days until they knew I was leaving Hong Kong. They STILL have my phone TWO months later and refuse to mail it to me, they laughed and said I should fly back to Hong Kong to get it as they were not spending money to ship phones. I even gave them my credit card number so I would pay for it -- and they have every excuse not to send it. Lamp Pui is the owner and she is impossible to deal with. She plays games, like blocking me from WhatsApp, not answering her phone or playing games on email. I just got the police involved and hope she gets arrested. DO NOT TAKE ANYTHING TO IMPRESSION DIGITAL AND LAMP PUI. (BTW: They didn't even fix the glass as the owner LAMP PUI claimed she "didn't know how to fix it.") BEWARE!

With jet lag and solo parenting, caffeine is undeniably a top priority and I had the pleasure of trying the tiramisu latte from Blooms Coffee.

And then we took off to exploring the different floors - being amazed with the Zootopia 2 decorations and display, visiting the Lego Store, finding souvenirs to buy at City Super, and making a Christmas wish list at the Lane Crawford store. We easily spent three hours in this mall. It's spacious and clean. The staff were helpful and friendly. I would definitely revisit the next time we are in town!

Causeway Bay Shopping Center is a little gem for all you comic lovers out there. I'm not one…read moremyself, but one of my friends was coming to HK and asked me about places to buy comics in HK. I had no clue, did a quick search on Google and found this. Tucked away on Sugar Street near the bridge that leads you to St Pauls Convent and Regal Hotel, this tiny thing, to small to qualify as a shopping 'center', is a comic haven. The shopping center looks quite decrepit and old, and it might not look like there's anything in there but don't judge a book by its cover! There's only one direction you can head to when you go in: down. You'll find a bunch of small shops that are filled to the brim with comics such as Batman, The Avengers, Wonder Woman etc. They even have guides to popular shows like Walking Dead and Once Upon a Time, and figurines from cartoons like Adventure Time. Prices for comics here are generally quite wallet-friendly. A comic will run you anywhere between $10 to $50 (I think I've seen a box at one of them that's stacked full with comics and reads '2 for $10', actually!) However, there are a lot of collector's items like action figures as well which are pretty expensive - I've seen some that are about a thousand! The shops here are REALLY tiny though - in the first comic shop that you enter when you walk down the stairs and turn right, I don't think you can fit more than five people in there! The shopkeeper really utilizes all the space he has to fill up the shop with stock. So when you're in there browsing and someone behind you wants to go out, you'll likely have to head out first to give way. Think of it like a crowded lift, if you will! Overall, this is a great place if you've been searching high and low for comics in HK but to no avail. The variety here is pretty endless and prices are affordable, though browsing here isn't the best customer experience because of the tiny spaces. But it's worth it - or at least my friend thought it was, evident from the close to ten comics and a Once Upon a Time guide that she left very happily with.

There are SO many upscale, high-end shops, quality restaurants, and things to see and take pictures of. It is also connected to the Hong Kong Botanical Garden, which was a very nice visit as well :) During last December 2025, Pacific Place had a mall promotion- the more you spend, the more you save! You also get gifts when you spend and reach a certain amount tier. Definitely attracted a lot of customers to shop and spend. The mall also set up a special donation booth for donating to the devastating fire that broke out in Tai Po in November 2025. In return, you will get a cute Christmas decor (blind box). The staff at the booth was very patient and helpful. The Great Food Hall in the basement is also a must-visit supermarket for foreign snacks and delicious eats!

Okay mom, it's their country and their culture, so relax. God will meet them where they are when it's time. Clean restrooms and very modern. I'd love to come back and visit again because they had a beverage place that serves drinks in a coconut husk, which is what mom really wanted to try. They also have a cool pub like place and I was wanting some wings. The only down side I'd see for locals is having to work their way around all the tour buses that pull up here and take up some road, but for me, it was fun.

Minus...probably groceries. + Public transportation friendly Cons - "Trying it on" is unheard of if you're buying clothes. Better to prepared and know your measurements. It's like buying clothes from aliexpress, but you get to see it in person before you buy - Cash: you probably need to bring cash. Each stall likely has a different policy about credit or debit cards (let alone international cards). This is basically a girl's shopping haven.

I am going to give this place 4 stars just for being interesting. By any American standards, it's…read morehard to call this a mall. I would describe it as more of a building full with tiny tiny shops. Whatever you can imagine, you can find at the mall. There were electronics stores, clothes of all kinds, purses, food stalls, gift shops and much more. Here's the interesting thing, each of these shops were only about 50-100 sq ft in size. Now there is about 4 stories on shops just like these. 4 floors of mini shops, with the bra shop sitting next to a gift shop next to a closet that sells curry fish balls. Was it a ton of stuff to buy, no, not really. But it was interesting. It was just like a indoor "ladies street."

So if you are a committed outlet shopper, this is really the only spot I have found to find…read moreauthentic high end brands at any discount in Hong Kong. I came out this way a few years ago, a few weeks ago and now just yesterday (in pursuit of after X-mas sales). Horizon Plaza (where the all the main shopping is) is one 30 story building. It is kind of located on the tip of Ap Lei Chau and feels like a barron spot, full of warehouses. Each floor has different stores. There are many floors and stores that are entirely dedicated to furniture and home decor. I concentrate on clothing, shoes, bags, accessories, which then eliminates many floors. I now really seek out the brands and stores I personally love and skip all the rest. If you go, here are a few tips that I wish I knew when I first went: 1) Take the elevator up to the top floor and work your way down. The elevators (they are relatively small, they are always packed and can be slow) are a great way to get to the top, start there and work you way down...by the stairs. Take the elevators if you must, but it is a juggernaut that is going to slow you down. 2) There are two stairwells. One stairwell has men's and then ladies restrooms on every other floor right there on the landing of the stairwell. The other stairwell has a handicap restroom on every floor. 3) It helps if you know your brands and their pricing. It helps to know what kind of deal you are getting and the stuff that is not such a great deal. For example, there is a Lane Crawford Outlet that occupies the entire 25th floor. The $30,000HKD Channel coat at Lane Crawford outlet is then marked down to $12,000HKD. So again, know your brands and their pricing. This might seem like a deal to many, but others might not ever imagine spending that much for a coat, regardless of who made it. So I repeat, you simply have to understand the vast array of brands sold in Horizon Plaza and look for those you know and like. 4) There are several stores that sell multiple brands under one roof. For example, the Imaginex Outlet is one store that sells BCBGMaxazria, Donna Karen, Tumi, and others in the same store. So if you are looking for one brand that does not have their own self standing store in Horizon Plaza, that does not necessarily mean the brand is not sold at Horizon Plaza. Another example, I personally love and wear Vivienne Westwood. There is not a Vivienne Westwood self standing store, but rather her stuff is sold at the Moda Mia Outlet store on floor 27. 5) There are limited options for food and drink. So go having had a meal or a good breakfast. You have to wander down the street to Harbour Industrial Center for something to eat if you are famished. Although it totally looks like a residential building and a warehouse in many ways, there are two cafes inside. One is Artichoke Canteen and can be found on Yelp (3rd Floor). 6) The PRADA outlet is not in Horizon Plaza and not walkable. You would have to hop in a cab to Marina Square maybe 7 minutes away, but still on Ap Lei Chau. 7) I think this trip after Christmas, I saw the biggest discounts. All Vivienne Westwood clothes, shoes and bags at Moda Mia were 90% off. I think this is a holiday thing though, for standard at most outlets is more like 30-50% off regular retail prices during a normal visit not associated with a holiday. 8) We take a cab out here from the Sheung Wan area where we live. The cab costs about $100HKD and is the easiest way to get there. I takes maybe 15 minutes. There is extensive construction on Ap Lei Chau buidling their MTR stop, but that is some time out before that opens (maybe late 2016, or 2017). There is also a shuttle bus option, but I have not taken that, so I cannot speak to it. There is also a big parking garage.
