According to locals, the market had only just opend up again after COVID at the beginning of September. I imagined it to be like the ladies market (see Ladies Market review) just at night, but it was a lot smaller. With about 10 vendors it took us about 15' to walk through and since most of them offered the same products, there was no real use to stay longer. Maybe this is one of the areas that needs to recover some more.

Our family of two adults, a 9 year old and a 6 year old visited here during the busy Chinese New Year holidays. We were staying in the near by Eaton Hotel so this was just around the corner from us. We visited one night after dinner to experience the night market. It was busiest where the food stalls were located and they had a range of seafood and meat options as well as desserts and of course, stinky tofu! The goods market wasn't that busy and I didn't feel there was as much of a range as say Ladies Market in Mong Kok or Stanley Market on Hong Kong island. It was quite small and repetitive. Still, a nice visit and we also enjoyed the nearby seafood restaurants where you can see all the fresh and live seafood displayed outside - classic Hong Kong. Enjoy!

Centrally located tourist trap that sells a thousand types of gimmicks. Approximately a ten minute stroll through traders stalls for about 400mtrs, there are some street food stalls at the northern end. You'll see a lot of beggars sat on the street and you need to be aware of the pickpockets that will follow tourists looking for opportunity. Beyond the stalls there is nothing more to see, this took less than an hour.

Gravitated to this street more because it was brightly lit compared to those surrounding it. Not as many stores as it used to have pre-covid, and a lot of stores are quite repetitive. Not say very cheap items are available as well, there was a guy who tried to bargain me for 3 shirts at hkd320, which is still a lot for a basic cheap quality shirt. know what you want, and the quality that the price should have besides that, we liked this 1 store near the temple street archway. there was an old lady selling keychains and 3d puzzles at a really cheap price (3 for hkd50). we bought 2 rounds, walked the entire street, and decided to come back to get even more souvenirs from her. she was so nice to even give us a discount. do visit her, she is so sweet

We have not been back to Temple Street for years, and popped by on a Saturday evening. There were many stalls selling clothings, souvenirs, food, etc, but somehow it lacked the charm of yesteryear. The prices at the food stalls are not exactly cheap but the street market is quite pretty when taken at the right place.
