Wan Chai, a district in Hong Kong, is home to several markets where you can find a wide variety of fruits and vegetables. Here are some popular options: Wan Chai Market (Wan Chai Road Market): Located on Wan Chai Road between Queen's Road East and Johnston Road, Wan Chai Market is a bustling wet market. Here you will find a wide variety of fresh produce, including a large selection of fruits and vegetables. It's a great place to explore and discover seasonal produce at affordable prices. Tai Yuen Street Market (Toy Street): While not exclusively a fruit and vegetable market, Tai Yuen Street Market is known for its vibrant atmosphere and diverse offerings. Located in Wan Chai, this market is popular for its street food, snacks, toys and household items. You can also find fruit stalls offering a variety of fresh fruits. Lee Tung Avenue (Sunday Market): Lee Tung Avenue hosts a Sunday market where local vendors set up stalls selling a variety of goods, including fresh produce. While the market is not exclusively dedicated to fruits and vegetables, you can still find a good selection of them alongside other products such as handicrafts, artisanal foods and more. Queen's Road East Market: Located on Queen's Road East in Wan Chai, this market features a mix of vendors selling fresh produce, meat, seafood and other grocery items. It's worth exploring for its selection of fruits and vegetables, and offers a glimpse into the daily lives of Wan Chai locals.

There is a nice street market scene that covers a few blocks between Johnston Road an Queen's Road East in Wan Chai. This includes a proper wet market building as well as several blocks of street markets that are fun to explore and potentially to make a purchase or two. In short, the Wan Chai Street Market is a bit of a mix of the Jardine's Crescent (Causeway Bay) and Fai Yuen (Mongkok) with that of typical Hong Kong wet market scene, like what you will see around Graham Street (Central). Here you will find all matter of foods (fruits, veggies, pork, seafood, sundries, etc..) being sold out of street shops and stalls sprawling onto the street. A couple pedestrian only streets are flooded with stalls selling consumables, cheap clothes and other items for daily use. You'll find cheap Thai and Philippine Sari-sari like shops as well Tai Yuen Street, which is known for the collectable toy shops that line the street. These are fun places to pop into as well. The Wan Chai Market is not promoted like the Mongkok, Stanley and other popular street market locals in Hong Kong. As such, you'll see far fewer tourists here. Its more a place for locals to do a bit of low-cost street shopping and food purchases. You can walk in any of the shops and don't worry about taking pictures. I've never found any of the shop or stall-keepers to take issues when doing so.

One of the biggest, most exciting wet market on Hong Kong island, is situated right here in Wan Chai district, at the corner of Queens Road East and Wan Chai Road. A wet market as opposed to a supermarket is apparently where there are even wetter displays of products, most likely live fishes and other seafoods like prawns, crabs, lobsters etc..Or fresh vegetables, like bean sprouts, or beancurds, some of which must most likely be still kept under soaking water most of the time. Then there are of course live 'wet' meats, like: pork, beef, chicken, in various stages of still wet preparation before they can be bought and taken home in neat dry carrier bags.

Wanchai is very known for the night life..but also known for the good stuff you can buy or find. Food is the most you can see in every alley of wanchai... The market is the most crowded but lots of cheapest food to buy especially fish. And it's easy access from the bus the only thing you can find hard is to find parking outside when you used cars. And also traffic most of the people buying food there are from the far places.. they bought food 1week consumption. I like the quality of the veggies there so fresh and affordable.

Wanchai market is one of the best wet markets that I have been to in the entire world. Produce is fresh, especially before noon time. There is live seafood, live chicken, imported fruit, local vegetables, barbecued meat, Indonesian and Philippine shops, discount stores, fresh flowers and plants and much more. You will love to just roam around and look. Most items have fixed price so no bargaining. Most stalls only take cash, no octopus or credit cards.

Wan Chai market is tucked away right in the middle of a bustling modern commercial district in the heart of Hong Kong. In my opinion, this market competes with Sam Shui Po market at Kowloon but Wan Chai is cleaner and more organized for me. You can buy fresh produce here as well as meats and more and even live seafood but you can also buy dry goods, clothes and so much more. Pretty much anything under the sun
