If you're sick of homogeneous malls filled with uninspiring chain stores, try a spot of Lunar New Year shopping at Kam Sheung Road Flea Market in Yuen Long (yl.hk/ksrsm) instead. Within walking distance of Kam Sheung Road Station, the open-air market is reminiscent of those all-encompassing markets in Thailand. Stalls offer food, drinks, clothes and accessories, homeware and toys. There are family-friendly facilities nearby, including a barbecue site, cycling track and an organic farm if you plan to make a day of it.
