3. Take a ferry to shop in Hong Kong’s most historic district at TSIM SHA TSUI in KOWLOON

Tsim Sha Tsui in southern Kowloon is most famous for its assortment of museums and historic landmarks, but the shopping in this southern Kowloon district ain’t too bad, either. Harbour City and 1881 Heritage on Canton Road are two of the district’s most popular plazas. Their locations near Star Ferry Pier is not only convenient but also spectacularly scenic. Shoppers also love to stroll inland down Nathan Road, where malls like SOGO Tsim Sha Tsui Store, The ONE and K11 stand out against bustling street markets and local boutiques.
