Stanley
赤柱
A seaside town at the southern tip of Hong Kong Island. Stanley Market, Murray House and Blake Pier make up a relaxed half day by the sea.
Stanley is on the southern peninsula of Hong Kong Island. The alleys of Stanley Market sell clothing, calligraphy and souvenirs. The waterfront promenade features Murray House, a Victorian building relocated from Central, and nearby Blake Pier, Tin Hau Temple and Stanley Main Beach are good for photos. The waterfront has many Western restaurants and bars, which are especially busy on weekends. The area also has the Stanley Military Cemetery. Admission is free. From Central, take bus 6, 6X or 260 for about 40 minutes, or take minibus 40 from Causeway Bay. It can be combined with Repulse Bay in one day.
