Sai Yeung Choi Street South
Walk the retail section between Argyle Street and Dundas Street for another view of central Mong Kok. This is a commercial street with traffic, so plan to stay on the pavements.

The street’s name preserves a trace of the watercress fields that preceded the surrounding high-rise district: Sai Yeung Choi means watercress in Cantonese. That agricultural past offers a useful contrast with the closely packed shopping streets around Argyle Street today. Treat this southern section as part of a Mong Kok walk rather than a separate destination.
What to look for

Useful to know
Keep to pavements and use crossings; the former pedestrianisation scheme has ended.
Allow 15–30 minutes within a Mong Kok circuit, adding time only for shops that interest you.
