Jardine's Bazaar (Chinese: 渣甸街; pinyin: Zhādiàn Jiē; Cantonese Yale: ja1 din1 gaai1) is a road located in Causeway Bay, Hong Kong. The road was named after William Jardine, when Jardine Matheson acquired the land in the area. The road ends at the junction of Hennessy Road, Yee Wo Street, Jardine's Crescent and Lockhart Road. Many shops are located along the road.

It is one of the oldest shopping areas in Hong Kong dating back at least to 1845.[1]
