Golden Computer Center, Sham Shui Po





If you are reading this blog, it is very likely you own a computer, and this means you should visit the Golden Computer Center (also known as the Golden Computer Arcade) in Shum Shui Po. In the 1980s and 1990s, Golden was a center for pirated software and illegal computer clones. Since then, it has been substantially cleaned up but it is still a major retail outlet for computers, computer books, software and hardware accessories.

Golden is easily accessible by MTR and is located just across the road from the D2 MTR station exit. Roast Goose King is located nearby and worth visiting for a meal. We've provided a map at the end of this article.

Golden is a popular place for both locals and visitors. The prices are fixed and there is no need to haggle. All of the shop keepers I have dealt with have been very honest and you can shop with confidence there.

Here is a shop which specialises in computer accessories and media, particularly blank CDROMs and DVDs.



This shop sells peripheral devices such as mice, speakers and headphones.



Here is a place that sells memory cards at very low prices.



Finally, one of my favourites, this shop which is located on the first floor sells classical music CDs and DVDs at unbelievably low prices.
