    PAPERCUTS

    There are a lot of interesting things to buy in China. From pottery to silk, from oriental medicines to papercuts, like the one in the photo. The best place to buy them is in Beijing, as you normally leave the country by plane from the capital city; besides, they are not much cheaper elsewhere.

    CHINES PHARMACIES
    Even if you are not ill, a chinese traditional pharmacy is worth the visit. You won't understand the use of so many herbs, dried animals, powders... but the ambiance, smell and colourful items is a nice experience.

    BARGAINING TECHNIQUES
    1. Offer a price that u want to pay and hear what the seller says.
    2. Bargaining with a small increase each tiem.
    3. If the price still high, pretend to leave.
    4. Seller may ask u to come back and talk about the price again.

    Just believe me! It really works! ~-)

    Friendly Chinese

    Beijing inhabitants (and Chinese in general) are friendly like this one who invited us to visit his shop of paintings to speak and improve his French.
    Or may be, it was to take my wife in his arms.
