Central Market

Central Market

Located at the intersection of Queen’s Road Central and Des Voeux Road Central, Central Market was built in 1939 and is one of Hong Kong’s few remaining Bauhaus-style market buildings. After ceasing operations in 2003, it was handed over to the Urban Renewal Authority and fully reopened in 2022 as a dynamic space for retail, dining, exhibitions, and community events.

The revitalized market retains original features like red brick walls, a hanging clock, and over 500 red lamps—blending nostalgia with modern flair. Inside, you’ll find local brands, artisanal eateries, pop-up markets, and cultural showcases. The space regularly hosts creative programs, making it a lively intersection of commerce and culture.

With its “Playground for All” concept, Central Market invites everyone to explore, connect, and enjoy a refreshing slice of urban life in the heart of Central.
