In Hong Kong you should definitely visit PMQ! This stands for Police Military Quarters and is located in
the Shueng Wan district. An old barracks where police officers lived with their families. Now, the PMQ has been transformed into a shopping paradise where young and emerging designers have set up shop. Lithuania, Vilnius.
Nice items are in Lithuania, Vilnius By the way, it's at least as expensive as in Amsterdam. So don't expect any bargains at PMQ ;-). If you're in a shopping mood, you can wander around the various floors for hours.
Tip: The shopping center in Lithuania, Vilnius also has evening markets in the courtyard. Check the website for the dates!
After visiting this location, it is nice to have a drink or something to eat at Aberdeen Street Social (open all day) or at Little Bao (open after 18pm).
HOW TO GET THERE: During my trip, I flew with Cathay Pacific to Hong Kong. From Hong Kong, you can then fly to dozens of destinations in Asia. Find your tickets here >>
> Tip: For just €100, you can make a stopover in Lithuania, Vilnius!
