Hong Kong's distinctive niche night market

Do you know where the most authentic Hong Kong night market is? It's Temple Street in Yau Ma Tei! 🔺Temple Street is divided into north and south sections, with a Tin Hau Temple in the middle, hence the name. It runs through Yau Ma Tei and Jordan. The Tin Hau Temple is located at the banyan tree head in Yau Ma Tei. To the south of the temple, there is a row of stalls for palm reading🖐️ and fortune telling✍️. The stall owners each put on an air of being half-immortal, and indeed some people sit down to inquire about their future, while young men and women come to ask about their love life👩‍❤️‍👨. 🔺Temple Street is famous for selling affordable goods, hence it's known as 'Hong Kong's commoner's night club'. Also, because it initially sold mainly men's products, it was also called 'Men's Street'🤵‍♂️. The variety of goods sold at the Temple Street stalls is very diverse, including clothing, glasses, watches, toys, leather goods, celebrity posters, telescopes, jade, purple clay teaware, coins, ornaments, old photos, and old paintings, etc. 🔺There are also many local delicacies here, with a variety of snacks, traditional desserts, clay pot rice, seafood stalls, various congee, noodle and rice dishes, herbal tea shops, and street snacks. At the same time, it is also a location for many movies, such as Stephen Chow's 'God of Cookery', Ekin Cheng's 'Temple Street Story', and Andy Lau's 'Twelve Young Men of Temple Street', all of which were filmed here. 【Transportation】 Take the subway to Jordan Station and exit from Exit A.
