I found this a really lovely trip whilst in Hong Kong. I was working by myself in Tsim Sha Tsui for a few weeks and did this as a day out twice while I was there. From Tsim Sha Tsui it took about an hour to get to via the MTR and bus. I took a double decker from Exchange... More

The bus ride out to Stanley Market was really enjoyable day and a nice way to beat the heat for a day spent out of central HK. While it is fun to stroll around the market--the usual knock-off handbags, sourvenirs, etc.--it is also enjoyable to choose one of the outdoor restaurants along the water for a meal or just people...

I found the market not really interesting. Just another place where you can spend money at. There are no things that you could not get in kowloon or other hongkong districts. But what i enjoyed really very much: the bus ride. Take #6 from central exchange square, wind up the hills of hongkong island and wind down again. you may... More

If you want to get out of crowded Hong Kong for a morning or afternoon, take the number 6 bus from Central for a half hour trip to the other side of the island. The little town of Stanley boast a pretty view of the sea and a few restaurants, but the big attraction is its market. Don't look for... More

Take the double decker bus to the market and try to get the front seat on the top level ~ great views and a fun ride as you twist and turn your away across the island. The market is your typical mix of trinkets, tee shirts and handbags but I also found a few little artworks and an antique apothecary... More

What a relief visiting and shopping at Stanley. Prices are good, products are more realer than the either the Night or Ladies markets in Kowloon just keep an eye on the dealers and products you buy and the change. There is no crowds during the week. Better supermarkets for food. Worth a visit. Fares about $1.20 US, we took the... More

If you have some spare time take the number 6 bus from Central to Stanley Markets. It is a great way to spend a few hours and come back with some bargains. The trip out there is a great insight into life on Hong Kong Island with some spectacular views. More

Stanley Markets are a treat. There are some really good bargains. Not ultra cheap, however some very good quality. Lots of good handbags and ladies fashion. Also very good Beach house Restaurant in the Square. The trip up can be made by public transport, private car or taxi and for the adventurous, not bothered by heights, the cable car. The... More

This is classic HK in a nutshell. Great calm bay area with great restaurants and a nice little old-time stall shopping area to buy HK trinkets. Easy bus ride over there from the other side of the island and an enjoyable day for us, picking up low-priced t-shirts, watches, chinese lanterns etc More

It's very convenient and worthwhile to see a different side of HK Island. It only takes 20 minutes by city bus #6 from Admiralty to Stanley Square. The Street is dotted with lovely seafood restaurants facing a peaceful beach. You can also get some snacks from the nearby City' Super and find yourself a seat at the Blake Pier where... More
