Cat Street

Hong Kong


Just north of (and parallel to) Hollywood Rd is Upper Lascar Row, aka ‘Cat Street’, a pedestrian-only lane lined with antique and curio shops and stalls selling Bruce Lee movie posters and old Hong Kong photos, cheap jewellery and newly minted ancient coins. It’s a fun place to trawl through for souvenirs, but expect most artefacts to be mass-produced fakes.
