Ap Liu Street in the Sham Shui Po neighborhood of Kowloon is part flea market, part electronics graveyard, and part junkyard. You can find used electronics, old remotes for out-of-date T.V.s and all sorts of parts for electronic goods. If you arrive by MTR, take the Ap Liu Street exit. When you surface from the station the street is several blocks long in either direction. Rows of outdoor booths are lined up along both sides of the street. In back of these booths are mostly electronic shops selling everything from the latest mobile phones to used power tools to transistors. The outdoor booths – which give the street its distinct character, range wildly. Some are well optimized while others have their wares haphazardly strewn across the ground. It’s a fun place to browse, as you never know what you’ll stumble upon.
