Bit of an odd one if you are an animal lover but ok just for looking. At least no-one tries to sell you anything as you can't take an animal home. Be warned there are also tortoises, terrapins, rabbits and others on display. The fish seem to be well cared for although this is not usual western standards.

Were exploring other nearby markets and swung by "Goldfish St". Both sides of the street are lined with shops selling beautifully coloured fish in all shapes and sizes, and all sizes of bowls and aquariums to match. As others have said, we also saw a few other pets for sale including rabbits, and probably spent around half an hour browsing.... More

Store after store after store selling pet fish. They are displayed in tons of clear bags hung on stands on the sidewalk. Quite the variety. Not for animal lovers. Sidewalks are narrow, crowded and very malodorous (sewage). More for people watching then animal lovers ....

This is an odd little section of Hong Kong good for about 90 minutes worth of free entertainment. Since few tourists come here, you can brag to your friends about going off the beaten track in Hong Kong. If you keep fish as a hobby, Goldfish Market is a must-see for you. You should go during daytime. At night, some... More

A street full of pet shops, mostly selling goldfish which are hung up in bags outside the shops. Other than the idea of hanging them up in bags it could have been pet shops in any other country. A few different animals but then again the local pet shop at home had some that were not here, Not worth a... More

Im not sure how these shops survive, I only say one person buying fish from the shops on this road, there were thousands of fish in small bags looking like they would rather be somewhere else,reminded me of the fairground, with all those half dead goldfish. If you look into the shops you will se the puppies and kittens in... More

There are many pet products and dogs to see there. many products cannot be found in Singapore. If you like to see exotic animals, try to watch out for signs pointing to the second and third floor. our favourite to visit is the one with a godzilla and buildings logo. the owner is very friendly and knowledge able. even gave...
