Yau Ma Tai - Night Market

During the day Temple Street, which runs north from Jordan Road on a line roughly parallel with Nathan Road, is a perfectly normal street in western Kowloon, but in the evening it becomes a giant "night market". Street traders offer an endless variety of wares, soothsayers and palmists attempt to read the future, and steam-kitchens serve simple but tasty dishes, which are perfectly safe to eat, since Chinese food is always well cooked.

On the other hand you should be careful when buying audio cassettes and CDs. Many of these are either illegal pirated copies or are by little-known musicians "in the style of" the original.
