"PMQ, Sheung Wan Upper. Once upon a time PMQ stood for Police Married Quarters but it was repurposed, refurbished and rechristened as an acronym to be opened as a creative hub in 2014. In Hong Kong this essentially translates as retail. But head to the upper levels of this heritage site where some of the less established and more interesting brands are (see my posts on Open Quote and Stars & Tart, also the one on G.O.D. which is on the ground floor). There are cafes and restaurants if you need to refuel (see my Sohofama post) and a rooftop garden on the 4th floor for some sitting and relaxing, you can also cross from one side of the complex to the other here. Also, keep an eye on their website to see if there are any exhibitions on – the Qube space has had some great ones with street artist Invader and designer Thomas Heatherwick."
