Sham Shui Po Fabric Market (Yen Chow Street) 深水埗布市場 「棚仔」

Sham Shui Po Fabric Market is such a place in Hong Kong where customers can browse through very different fabrics for different purposes all in one place.   It's also a tourist attraction in its own right.  A place for tourists who are really interested in local Hong Kong. Tearing it down for a few blocks of residential high-rises is an act of stupidity!  

深水埗布市場俗稱「棚仔」，市場內布疋重重疊起，穿梭布疋窄巷，有如置身另一空間。「棚仔」布疋繁多，應有盡有，顧客不必四處奔走，想買嘅都盡在此處。今日行入「棚仔」速寫見到不少外地遊客到訪，可見「棚仔」嘅魅力。我只可以講，拆「棚仔」後起幾幢住宅大廈，實在愚不可及。
