New Town Plaza
If you're looking to come down to fashion earth after the designer heaven that is Central, Sha Tin's New Town Plaza is a great bet. Unless you're on the way to Shenzhen, it's somewhat detached from the usual tourist circuit. However, the New Territories' best mall has more than 350 mid-range shops and restaurants anchored by the U.K.'s Marks & Spencer. The usual local suspects abound, but lesser known local brands like Pedder Red have stores here, too. A huge multiplex cinema draws crowds on weekends. New Town Plaza is also home to one of Hong Kong's kitschier attractions: Snoopy's World, celebrating Schultz's famous cartoon dog.
