Victoria Park Lunar New Year Market is tucked in the heart of Hong Kong Island, near the bustling neighborhood of North Point. The park itself sits at 1 Hing Fat Street, just a 5-minute walk from Fortress Hill MTR station (exit B).

Buses like 8X or 99 also drop you nearby, and if you’re feeling adventurous, a short ferry ride from Tsim Sha Tsui to Tsuen Wan followed by a taxi works too!

During the day, locals jog on the track, kids play on the playground, and shaded benches make it perfect for a picnic. At night, the lights twinkle, creating a magical backdrop for the market.
