Operating hours
Mon - Sun: 12.00pm - 11.00pm
One of Hong Kong's most popular street markets, Ladies Market is packed with locals and tourists looking for bargains on clothes, accessories, bags, cosmetics, souvenirs, household knick-knacks and other quirky items. It emerged as a result of the Hong Kong government's efforts to create 'authorized hawkering zones' back in 1975, and derived its name due to the abundance of hawkers selling ladies clothing and accessories. Today, Ladies Market is popular not among both men and ladies, and also sell children's toys and clothes. It is a 'pedestrian only zone' from the afternoon onwards, so you can shop without worrying about traffic! Take note that there is a fair amount of imitation goods here, so keep that in mind when deciding on purchases.
This place is also known as 女人街.

PassportChop.com Travel Blog says about Must do
How to bargain in Hong Kong markets -> Don't pay more than two thirds of the asking price for anything you buy in the markets – though half is nearer the mark. The stall holder will tap his or her price into a calculator then hand it to you to put in what you are prepared to pay. You give it back and they will laugh and tap in another price – and so the game commences.

Must do tips
1. As with most street markets, haggling is a must. You can typically expect a discount of 10-30%, depending on your dressing and bargaining skills. Some items are available at multiple stores, so feel free to move on if you find the price unreasonable.
