My opinion of Congo Street (and what Kariakoo generally has to offer in terms of apparel) didn’t change for the better.
Rather, I thought more strongly the same.
In fact, I came home a bit more irritated by all the imitation beauty products that I found on sale there trying to be passed off for the real thing.

That said, given the number of people who I know shop in Kariakoo (and I am going to assume that they shop in the area around Congo Street), it can’t be all bad.
I guess it might be a question of knowing which particular shops to go to (like Blue Corner for me) or keeping a keen eye out for that special find (which I often find is too much energy for everyday shopping).
But…all this is just my novice opinion. What do you think? Can you tell me more about shopping on and around Kariakoo’s Congo Street? What did I miss?
Let me know by leaving a comment below.
As always, I look forward to hearing what you have to say.
Until the next time,
