Compact enough for almost everything to be in easy walking distance, and with wide and well maintained signed roads between the buildings there is never a problem getting anywhere. Getting in and out of the district is made easy with Hong Kong's ever present Red Taxis as well as the underground MTR trains and the regular trains.
