Yes, Nathan Road is full of shops for souvenirs and shopping. It is within the TST area. But go to Mongkok for bargains

yes, there are many shops on nathan road. from good ones to really bargain basement ones!

i'd be a bit cautious about buying electronics in the stores there tho since their salesmen are famous for being a bit tricky (ex. they'll offer a discounted rate for a camera but sell everything else that comes in the box with it at a separate price!!!).

they have many clothing stores there that are cheap and many souvenir shops selling chinese products too. lots of shoe stores and jewelery shops there too.

they also have the best rates for foreign currency exchange on nathan road (with no commission).

Yes. You can go to Shopper's Parklane to buy branded shoes and clothings... Miramar mall is located across the Parklane. There are small stores along the street selling goods for souvenirs.

Yes, it is a great place to shop and eat. It is a very long street. You can walk from Mongkok all the way to Tsim Sha Tsui and you won't feel tired! It is great!

Hi there

Firstly I would like you to look at this link for basic details www.discoverhongkong.com

Nathan Road of Kowloon was the busiest main road from tourist high class commercial district of Tsim Sha Tsui all the straight way to lower class of Prince Edward.

Start from Tsim Sha Tsui, if you want to spend some high class shopping mood, start from Harbour City where just U-turn from end of Nathan Road next to Canton Road. Many of the big names there, perhaps you could find some cheaper from there. Souvenirs mostly selling at around the street-stalls while you pass by, of course there's so many different of handcraftments you would spot out. the following stop is Cameron Road next to Granville Road, loads of street shops in front of you.

Next to Jordan and Yau Ma Tei; you will find some of the electronic products shops, clothing and souvenirs. especially at YMT, highly recommended you go check out the Temple Street market where is one of the remaining the oldest street-stalls selling on the street at night time. However depends on how sharp of your eyes to find what is bogus or some nice thing you would like to have. But don't expect they are genuine! Well this is to push up the economy for HK! And of course shops and hotels around you.

Next station is Mongkok, yes one of the most updated district in Kowloon side. Especially if you looking for your favorite cell phone, d-cam, digital products. Sure you can grab your stuff from here. And no problems with the fake, all brands products carry with warranties and with care service. You don't need to worry about it. But should be shopping at the chain stores Or a shop that you recommended by your friend who ever been there with trusted. And then Ladies street where selling bogus and fake items (in that fame) most popular. Notwithstanding, tourist from around the pretty enjoy there and found what they like. Souvenirs also could be found. And there some restuarants by both sidewalk of Ladies street you could also take a little moment to sit down and take a bite. If you want to shopping indoor? You should go to Mongkok Centre or Newtown city shopping centre where just twins together. There lots of clothing, accessories, shoes and fun stuff you would check out. And of the large shopping mall in Mongkok is Langham Place, where you may found some excitements there. Don't worry if you cash run out, there also have CHANGE stall around the street, if you attention on some big currency CHANGE neo around you. And there have Mongkok main branch of HSBC, you can go there for ATM cash out and foreign exchange.

The end of Prince Edward, another Street you have to check out is Garden Street, just like Ladies street not much big different, but also you could buy some fresh fruits there. If you want to shopping indoor? There have Mongkok Century shopping mall, And if you look for another new experience in Price Edward, there have loads of Aquarium shops and pet shops on the street next to Pioneer centre, you would like it. Many of tourists they pretty enjoy there and searching for their lovely species.

I can't name as much as you curious about, but another suggestion that you should go by MTR, from TST to PE or alternative. You will sure have something eventually!

Good Luck
