Unless you’re shopping for furniture or visiting the Lane Crawford outlet as a tourist, there is probably no other reason why you’d make a trip to Ap Lei Chau. Most locals haven’t even gone there, as it’s mostly residential. If you have been there, you might have noticed a sort of post-industrial vibe (evidenced by the move of the power station) that couldn’t seem farther away from Central. Which makes it all the more surprising that there’s also a winery out there.
Shopping In Hong Kong: Citygate Outlets
The next-to-last shopping destination before you exit Hong Kong is Citygate Outlets, a complex that seems mostly geared toured tourists and the residents of the Tung Chung area. The fact that it’s only a short bus ride from the airport on Lantau Island is enough to squash even the prospect of going there. But with sales that go up to 90 percent, it is well worth the trip out there.
