The area
Neighbourhood: Wan Chai / Causeway Bay
Wan Chai and Causeway Bay are the retail centres of Hong Kong Island. Filled with shops, malls and restaurants, both areas are bustling with people – tourists and locals alike. Causeway Bay has one of the highest rents on the planet, and is a bit more polished and modern than its Wan Chai counterpart. Beneath the surface there is more than meets the eye – find boutique stores in the above ground floors of buildings and wander into side streets to find interesting restaurants and shops tucked away from the main roads. Wan Chai especially has experienced a modern revival in recent times, with an influx of trendy restaurants and bars around the Star Street area. In addition, both areas contain many of Hong Kong’s iconic tourist attractions worthy of your visit.

Lee Tung Avenue is a restored old street in Wanchai that was redeveloped and repurposed around 5-6 years ago into a shopping and leisure area that feels a bit like a Disneyland street or one of the Macau hotel shopping venues. There are retail shops, cafes, coffee shops, food shops and a few restaurants. Shops are generally open between 10am to 10pm daily.
Over the years many of the original businesses that started up at Lee Tung Avenue have gone and been replaced. Some of the long standing places like Passion by Gerard Dubois (Swiss style bakery) and Le Pain Quotidien (Belgian bakery/cafe) are still there. There is an Emock & Bolio (Boston, U.S.A. ice-cream parlour) and a very good Omotesando (Japanese coffee shop) that make for good food and drink stops in the area.
Worth noting that Lee Tung Avenue do a really nice job with decorations around Christmas, Chinese New Years and Mid-Autumn Festival which liven up the entire outdoor venue, making it a neat place to visit during the holiday seasons.

This is a short open-air pedestrian mall, with upmarket shops and eateries in central Wan Chai.
Despite more recent development, Wan Chai is still one of those places where you can still see old and modern Hong Kong, sitting cheek by jowl. You can be walking along a smart new area like Lee Tung Avenue and then a street or two away, you can turn a corner and find yourself at an open-air butcher’s selling horses’ tails, with live chickens next door.
For some time, giant colourful butterflies have been strung overhead and during Chinese New Year, the avenue is also festooned with a sea of red lanterns, making it a very pretty sight especially at night. If you are nearby, it’s worth a detour.

While visiting the Wanchai area in Hong Kong Island, don't miss a walk to this busy and colorful short street. It was once a street for printing cards and wedding stuff and now converted to beautiful tourist site for taking photos. I went there in December and so the shops have prepared for the Christmas.

...within the sleazy madness of Wan Chai, more like a sanitised spot in Singapore but it has an undeniable appeal nonetheless. Leading up to and during Chinese New Year it’s undeniably beautiful and has some nice places to eat as well. Just don’t expect the rest of the neighbourhood to be anything like this...

I went to there during CNY of Pig on day and night, so beautiful. The area had been renovated to a modern style to attract the visitors.
Very convenience to take MTR and get off from Wanchai station. Plenty of restaurants and pubs, as well as a shopping mall at the basement.

The most colorful and decorated short street in Hong Kong is a must visit during Chinese New Year. It has blossoms, lanterns, paintings and most of all, the Pig - the zodiac animal of the year. A great photo opportunity for everyone.

Lee Tung Avenue is an open air shopping street with restaurants and shops along the sides. There's also a basement level where there are some cafes, bakeries, a supermarket, etc. The basement level also connects directly to the MTR.
The street is usually decorated for the season. For my most recent visit, there were red lanterns and piggy banks for Chinese New Year!

Lee Tung Avenue - at Wan Chai MTR Station Exit A3 or Exit D or Can take a Tram get off either southorn playground tram stop or Wanchai market station.
Lee Tung Avenue such a beautiful decor, many restaurants to eat, cafes, and shops for shopping but at a higher budget though. Its a small area but kinda cute’ I could say’ with all the gorgeous decorations lanterns. And theres also plenty of bench to sit and relax.
Must see 👍🏻quiete interesting.
