This mall is excelling thru my standards!! I had play dates with friends here, birthday celebration…read moreand huge shopping spree. My mom is a gold member at the point because of how much we go to this mall monthly. I personally live in sha tin district and it's the closest nicest mall near me. For me I'm a girl and the girls toilets are always full. Like you gotta wait in line bud, the line is very long until door area. The fact that this mall has an instrument store made it better. Becuase me I live with a 3 year old and can't buy instruments becuase the 3 year old will destroy the instrument so I don't have any. I usually go to home square for the instrument to play with but now I can just go to New Town plaza!! This mall sells a lot of good stuff. It's connected to 4 - 5 different malls ( Lucky Plaza, Hilton Plaza and Sha tin plaza) those were the 3 malls I can think of right now but I know for a fact that new town plaza has different phrases. Me as a girl I like shopping expensive things such as coach, Dior, Apple Store and much more. I find new town plaza a great mall to socialise, hang out and shop. This mall has everything you wish for as a girl but I don't know about men becuase I'm a student, not dating anyone never thought about men stuff. Thanks for reading my review. Hope you have a wonderful day at new town plaza if you're going there!!

We made a trek up to the Sha Tin neighborhood in the New Territories and the Sha Tin MTR station…read morefeeds right into this mall. It's a big mall and is known to be one of the busiest in all of Hong Kong. It was first opened in the 1980's but has been kept renovated and modernized and it currently still has a fresh and contemporary feel to it. As is typical with Hong Kong malls, there are a ton of shops, eateries, and tons of people to go with them. We ended up having a very nice dim sum lunch here at one of their main and popular restaurants, the Peking Garden restaurant. This first visit to Sha Tin personally gave me a feel for what a more residential area is like out in the "boonies" of Hong Kong, and it is a bit more laid back than in Hong Kong proper.

Back in the day, Lucky Plaza was a seedy mall that sold everything from pirated video games to X…read morerated videos. When you went in there, there was the distinct smell of cigarettes lingering in the air and seeping from the inside of the mall. The shops were either empty or operated by people who you really don't want to mess with and the deeper you went inside the less desirable it became. Turn the clock forward to the modern day, the place has cleaned itself up big time. There are no smokers, no fake CDs- instead there is now a supermarket, some old shops have carried through the regeneration including some shops selling mobile phones and watches which have been here forever. The mall's focus is now less centralized than before, you have a lot of shops focused on ladies fashion, a number of stores that sells mobile and electronics and a number of pharmacies. This turnaround is such a big one that I trust anyone who came here in the old days probably couldn't recognize it now . Good riddance to the old days when I just thought this place was waiting to be taken apart and this regeneration has really breathed a new lease of life into the margin of the Shatin City Centre complex. Would I come here all the way to see it? No. If you live nearby though, this is a pretty good place to kill time.

Walking distance from New Town Plaza, Lucky Plaza is a little shopping mall that is home to many…read moresmall shops. There are no big names here (for that, head back to New Town Plaza!). Instead, the shops here are more so small, family-owned businesses - a very refreshing chain from the other internationalized and chain-dominating malls of HK. Lucky Plaza is not big - you can circle it in a couple of minutes if you try. My favorite thing to do here is to explore the 'locker shops'. This is a concept where the shop consists of multiple squares, each divided from one another, and the sets of items in each are different. Rent in HK is expensive, and sometimes, a store owner may not have that much to sell. These locker stores allow them to rent out a locker or two monthly to sell their items while not having to be physically present in the store. As a result, a locker store is basically a ton of shops within a shop. It may be surprising what you can find here! My most recent purchase from Lucky Plaza was actually a drinking game from one of the locker shops here - I thought it would make a fun gift for a friend's birthday, and it was pretty inexpensive! K-pop merchandise is very popular here, including posters, folders and even playing cards, with each card featuring a different photo of a Korean celebrity! If you're interested in scrap booking or other crafts, you'll be able to find a lot of nice materials for that too. There are about three or four of these locker shops and they are usually the main reason for me coming to Lucky Plaza. The clothing stores at Lucky Plaza are not so remarkable though - a lot of brightly colored oversized t-shirts or outfits that are just way over the top. There are one or two accessories shops that are worth checking out though. As for food, your dining options are pretty limited. Tam Zai (Yunan-style noodles) is not bad, but I'm not a fan of the other restaurants here. It's best to venture back to New Town Plaza where there are a lot more restaurants to choose from!

Chevalier Garden Commercial Complex is the shopping center fronting the Chevalier Garden public…read morehousing development. While the retailers here don't compare to what you will find in the city, the convenience factor is here. You don't have to take a bus or drive to buy what you need as far as groceries and other basic needs go. They have a number of restaurants in the complex including a big Chinese restaurant called Ying Choi that serves dim sum and seafood. There are a couple convenience stores by the bus terminal as well as a bakery and a number of grocery, meat and produce shops. Even a dry cleaner. If you are looking for something along the lines of clothing and electronics, you will need to head elsewhere like New Town Plaza. But for the bare necessities, it is nice to know that you don't have to travel too far if you live at Chevalier Garden. You can simply go downstairs.
