Nathan Road Shopping; the Shopping Spree at the Golden Mile…
Named after the governor Sir Mathew Nathan, Nathan Road is located in Kowloon, at the northern limit of old British Colony. The road leads directly to Boundary Street and it is also known as Nathan's Folly because of its unusual width. Tsim Sha Tsui, Jordan and Yaumatei are the subways near the Nathan Road.
Today Nathan Road is full of shops and boutiques in various shapes and sizes. Because of the plethora of storefront neon lights, the name Golden Mile was coined to the lower part of Nathan Road and now this road is considered as one of the busiest shopping streets in all of Hong Kong and one of the major tourist attractions in the area.
It is a known fact that it will take at least an hour or two to get back to the other end of Nathan Road because the shops are located all over this vibrant area; on both sides of the road and also in the side streets. The eyes of shopoholics will be brightened by the famous neon sign boards which cover the entire skyline and they will surely be enthralled in the variety of collections which are on display.
A walk along Nathan Road will reveal an impressive array of stores including electronics stores, the latest fashion stores, camera shops, various street markets, food booths and major restaurants which are all located in the area.
Eaton Hotel Kowloon which is situated right at the heart of the busy city center offers attractive facilities and services. This Kowloon hotel is ideal for visitors to Hong Kong who come to shop due to its ideal location.
