The Goldfish market in Mong Kok, Hong Kong, is a street market that spans a few blocks of Tung Choi Street North, which has racks and racks of goldfish and tropical fish hanging in their makeshift ponds, waiting for buyers to pick them up like a baggage claim.
The makeshift ponds don’t only contain goldfish too, exotic friends of Nemo, baby turtles and even tiny seahorses can be found everywhere.
The markets in Mong Kok operate daily, and especially come alive at night. There are flower markets and bid markets nearby too, but none quite as interesting and intriguing as the goldfish market.
