Overview
Kowloon, which faces Hong Kong across the harbor at the tip of the peninsula, is one of the most densely populated areas in the world. Buildings here aren't as glitzy as on the island but nonetheless, it's a very dynamic commercial area.

Tsim Sha Tsui
In the area of Tsim Sha Tsui (a part of Kowloon), there are almost as many camera stores facing the street as there are people in Hong Kong. Inside the buildings, the shopping centers run continuously check out Harbour City that has its southern entrance by the Star Ferry terminal. If shopping is your poison, then watch out for an overdose-it won't get better than Nathan Road as the axis of action with restaurants, shops and bars.
There are many lively markets in Kowloon, some of the best are near the Prince Edward MTR station at the northern end of Nathan Road, the Yuen Po Street Bird Market, the Flower Market and Temple Street Night Market to name a few.
Culture Relics
Amids all the heady shopping it's easy to forget that Hong Kong is also rich in cultural experiences. As a reminder to explore beyond the malls and boutiques, the Hong Kong Culture Centre is a good place to begin with a worthwhile historical section and contemporary art section, also check the local listings for special performances at the center. The Museum of History on Chatham Road offers glimpses into pre-skyscraper Hong Kong-when it was still nothing but barren rock.
