“Jade is the most beautiful of stones.” With its smooth, glossy surface, jade embodies clarity, purity, and beauty, symbolizing health and longevity. Many Chinese people enjoy wearing jade bangles, and in numerous families, grandmothers give precious jade to newborn babies as gifts. A visit to the Jade Market offers a wide selection of jade ornaments to choose from.

Situated at the junction of Gansu Street and Battery Street in Yau Ma Tei, Hong Kong, the Jade Market is open daily from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM. The market houses around 400 registered jade stalls selling a variety of jade ornaments, including pendants, rings, bangles, carvings, and decorative pieces. With options to suit all budgets, it attracts many jade buyers who haggle using hand gestures in a mysterious yet professional manner. Nearby, a section of Canton Road (between Gansu Street and Jordan Road) features numerous jade shops, forming the well-known “Jade Street.” At the intersection of Canton Road and Jordan Road, there is even a three-ton jade sculpture serving as a landmark, adding to the area’s tourist appeal. The market is open from Monday to Saturday, 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM, making it a must-visit destination for shoppers in Hong Kong.
