High Street ({{zh|c=高街|p=gāojiē; jyutping: gou1 gaai1}}) is a one-way street in Sai Ying Pun, Hong Kong, available only to minibuses and private vehicles. It connects Bonham Road in the east and Pok Fu Lam Road in the west. It runs from east to west from Western St to Pok Fu Lam Road, and from west to east from Western Street to Bonham Road. It was originally named Fourth Street, but because the number four is commonly avoided in Chinese culture, the government changed the name to High Street.

High Street has over 1,400 apartments.{{cn|date=November 2017}}
