Causeway Bay is Hong Kong's most intense shopping district — annual pedestrian count rivals Tokyo's Shibuya. Two anchor malls: Times Square (15 levels, every brand) + Sogo (Japanese department store benchmark). Streetwear hunters head to Russell Street's basement arcades. Eats: Yan Chai Restaurant for classic dim sum (HK$200-300/person), Tsui Wah for cha chaan teng (late-night), the original Honeymoon Dessert. The Noon-Day Gun ceremony (a colonial holdover where Jardine-Matheson fires a cannon at exactly noon, daily since 1860) is at the waterfront — free, 30-second spectacle. Pickpockets work the MTR exits heavily — keep phones zipped.

Shopaholic·TripAdvisor·4/5
Hong Kong's busiest district — Times Square mall + Sogo + the famous Noon-Day Gun ceremony free at the waterfront. Foot traffic = Tokyo Shibuya level.

铜锣湾时代广场+SOGO+轩尼诗道，免税牌子最全。晚上7-10点最热闹但人多。

Touristy but legitimately the city's commercial heart. Noon Day Gun is a 30-second spectacle daily since 1860. Free.

Yan Chai dim sum (HK$200-300/person) is the genuine local Cantonese option here, not just chain restaurants.
