Spend a day in the energetic fashion hub of Hong Kong’s SoHo. This dynamic suburb south of Hollywood Road in Hong Kong Central, is a great place to rub shoulders with the hip, glamorous and creative. Shop the exclusive boutique stores, browse cutting-edge art and enjoy some of Central’s most stylish eating and drinking.
During the day, discover ancient artifacts and curios from yesteryear in the antique and vintage stores along Hollywood Road. These stores range from the expensive to the cheap-and-cheerful, so you’ll be sure to find the perfect memento.
Discover contemporary art shows at the Edouard Malingue gallery, then visit the Man Mo Temple to see tributes to the gods of literature and war. Be sure to visit Pottinger Street and see the historic granite stone steps of Hong Kong that are so rare nowadays.
Sample Hong Kong’s legendary street food at one of the area’s Dai Pai Dongs (open-air food stalls). Be sure to visit SoHo’s bakeries early in the day to stock up on fresh bread and pastries.
As the day winds down, choose from one of the many fantastic restaurants and bars and watch SoHo light up. There are restaurants to cater to every taste, from local specialties to cuisines the world over. After a meal, catch a few laughs at the TakeOut Comedy Club, which hosts comedians of all languages. Then join the throngs of partygoers at one of many live-music bars, night clubs and lounges.
SoHo is a short walk from the Hong Kong Central MTR Station. Outdoor, undercover escalators are provided to whisk you up the steep hill and into the heart of the suburb.
