Detailed itinerary

Stop 1

Cha Chaa Teng Food Tasting, Hong Kong style local café. Cha chaan teng are commonly found in Hong Kong, Macau, and parts of Guangdong. Due to the waves of mass migrations from Hong Kong in the 1980s.

Stop 2

We would take the Ding Ding (electric cable tram) visit dried seafood market, You will spot all sorts of dried seafoods and other edibles: dried fish skins, dried mushrooms, Chinese sausages, ginseng, dried oysters, clams, abalone, sea cucumbers, Chinese teas and herbs.

Possession Street has a significant place in the history of Hong Kong. On 25 January 1841, the British navy arrived at nearby Possession Point (now Hollywood Road Park) and began 150 years of rule, marked by a flag-raising ceremony the day after the initial landing. Originally perched on the waterfront, Possession Street was given a new lease of life through reclamation. The area is now dotted with hip restaurants and boutiques, alongside historic stores where you can still sample a taste of an older Hong Kong.

Tai Ping Shan Street is part of PoHo, which also includes Po Hing Fong, Pound Lane, Sai Street and Square Street. In contrast to much of the surrounding area, PoHo is a quiet community where shops selling hip goods from around the world are nestled between galleries and teahouses; and design studios meet vintage stores in a discreet little bohemian neighborhood.

While visiting Tai Ping Shan Street, we would pass by Pak Sing Ancestral Hall, painted in fiery red and decorated with giant incense spirals hanging from the ceiling, the Pak Sing Ancestral Hall on the slope of Tai Ping Shan Street in Sheung Wan is the locals’ go-to place to get their prayers answered. But the temple comes with a saddening story on its establishment dating back to the 1850s.

Stop 6

Enter our finally stop at Hollywood Road and Cat Street. The street has been famous for selling old goods, antiques and second hand items for 100 years at least. At one time stolen goods were common here and a "cat" is Chinese is a handler of stolen goods, a "fence", as thieves are called 'rats'.
