Horizon Plaza

Top choice in Aberdeen & South Hong Kong Island


Tucked away on the southern coast of Ap Lei Chau, this enormous outlet housed in a converted factory building contains 100 shops over 25 storeys. Most locals come here to buy furniture, but you’ll also find Alexander McQueen on offer and Jimmy Choos at knock-down prices. Heaps of kiddies' stuff as well, from books and toys to clothing and furniture.

Highlights include Tree, a chic wooden furniture shop on the top floor; Lane Crawford, with up to 90% off luxe frocks and footwear; Joyce Warehouse, offering off-season edgy designer clothes; and Bluebell Fashion Warehouse, a multi-designer label outlet that won’t bust a hole in your wallet. (A heads-up: waiting for the lifts is a frustrating exercise here, it’s wise to start from the top floor and work your way down.)

Horizon Plaza is a 15-minute walk from exit C of South Horizons metro station.
