New Town Plaza Phase 3, Shopping center and residential development in Sha Tin District, Hong Kong.
New Town Plaza Phase 3 is a large mixed-use complex in Sha Tin District with nine retail levels containing over 400 shops, restaurants, and entertainment options. Multiple indoor walkways connect the various commercial spaces, while five residential towers sit directly above the shopping areas.
The complex opened in November 1990 as part of Sun Hung Kai Properties' expansion of the original New Town Plaza. This development marked an important moment in how Sha Tin's commercial landscape was taking shape.
The shopping center functions as a community gathering spot where locals and visitors meet over meals and shopping, embodying how Hong Kong integrates commerce into daily life. The adjoining residential towers show how the city mixes homes and shops in compact urban spaces.
Access is straightforward from MTR Sha Tin Station via Exit A, which opens directly into the complex. The extensive indoor passages mean you can browse and move around comfortably regardless of weather conditions.
The five residential towers sit directly atop the shopping center, creating an unusual blend where families live above the shops they visit. Residents can access retail and dining options without ever stepping outside.
