Yuyuan Old Street
Like other market areas a mix of fake and cheap stuff with some mainly inside more upmarket shopping e.g. shop No.19 is great for pearls and jewellery. Take the Metro as the station is 100m from the area. 3 Yuan from Nanjing Road or anywhere really and much more expensive by taxi. Metro like the London Tube, English ticket machines that take coins in the most part. We found the markets bustling places but a lot of similar items. There is a Starbuck and limited toilets. The Markets on the railway at Science Museum Line 2 were better. The best are still in Shenzhen railway station a 45 min train trip from Hong Kong.

Busy place with beautiful architecture
We visited here in August 2019 on a tour. Although we were only here for a couple of hours, it was no where near enough time to get through all the shops and food stalls and sights. August is a very busy time and there were many many people everywhere. The architecture was wonderful, and so much to see. Definitely worth the visit. Leave yourself enough time.

Shopping in style
Good people watching in an old-style shopping area. The architecture is distinctly Chinese, but almost theme park-ish. I'm not sure about the quality of the goods, but there is a large variety. Plenty of people in the area to offer you replica items such as watches and handbags.
