Apliu Street Flea Market - Electronic Products Market

This street is one of the most famous flea markets in Hong Kong.
Its name is come from its origin.
In about 1920, the nearby areas of this street were full of fish ponds and duck raising yards.
Thereafter, due to the urban development, most of the fish ponds were land filled and the duck raising yards were closed.
Since then, this street got its name "Apliu", which means "duck huts" in Chinese.

At the very beginning, this street is just a local market.
Local residents come here to sell second hand stuff from their homes, such as old toys and electric devices.
By and by, this local market is specialized into selling mostly electronic products.

Nowadays, the stalls in the flea market are more commercial.
This huge flea market is well known for selling bargain electrical components, audio and video equipment and telecommunications products.

Also, most of the selling products do not require much technical knowledge of use.
Far away from those big skyscrapers and the expensive restaurants, this flea market is one of the places that you can still find the traditional Hong Kong.

To reach this place, take the MTR to Sham Shui Po MTR Station and leave at Exit C2.
Once you get out of the station, you know you are at the right place.
