The Pearl Market (Hong Qiao Shi Cheng): Pearl Paradise

by sugarpuff

I had to select 'other' on the 'type of shop' list because it has EVERYTHING you could possibly yearn for...truly! From the outside it is a very plain looking building but when you enter, oh goodness, you can just TELL that you're not going to be able to leave for another three hours at least! I was in there last week with two friends new to Beijing and we literally spent HOURS walking round this place! It has three levels all full of heavenly goodies waiting to be snapped up! Unfortunately you have to bargain here and when I say bargain, I don't mean just go down a couple of ten kuai, I'm talking about going down over a third of the price that they originally asked for! Its tough work sometimes, but its well worth it in the end when you part with just 20kuai for a bag instead of the 85 they were asking for! The ground level floor is all electronic gadgets....a wonderful place for all...

Qianmen Shopping Street: Typical Beijing trinkets and snacks

by sugarpuff

Qianmen area has always been of interest to me and when I first came to China, this shopping area, known as Dazhanlan (but to the locals as Dashilar) was such a busy place bustling with fast food restaurants, Time Honoured Brands (shops which have been here for hundreds of years) and a mish mash of stalls selling anything from chopsticks, to mugs which change colour when warm liquid is poured in, to Mao Memorabilia. It was a fun place to bring guests and you could always get a feel of old China here. What is extremely interesting now is that you can still get that feeling of Old China, but this time from the original Qianmen main street in the 1920s and 1930s. Buildings have been modelled against what they used to look like which I think is extremely fun and is great as a tourist area. It will definitely bring in the crowds.Throughout this whole area, you can definitely catch a glimpse...

Souvenir shops at tourist attractions

by victorwkf

If you want souvenirs, there are many souvenir shops at the major attractions with all sorts of Chinese items for you to choose. The most important thing is to bargain hard as most of these souvenirs are overpriced. You can sometimes slash up to 70% or more of the original price of the items.

Beijing 2008 Olympics Souvenirs

by victorwkf

The Beijing Olympic Games 2008 souvenirs are sold at many locations throughout Beijing city via authorised shops only. The prices of the items are fixed so they are the same everywhere (and no bargaining). There are souvenirs ranging from a few dollars to more than $50,000 RMB, depending on your budget. If you want variety, visit the bigger stores and one of them is located at the heart of the Wangfujing shopping area in the city centre (just next to the Forbidden City).

Silk Alley Market: Bargain

by colbroth

The markets (Silk Alley, Pearl Market, etc are all about the same) selling knock off designer label items, shoes, pearls, leather items. Be sure to bargain. If you don't like the price, the next booth has the same item. I found the best deals are to just buy from people off the street. If you have the time, walk around the city, you may just see some little shops or a table set up on a side street selling items. pan juyin market on sat, sunday is great flea market, has new stuff there too. pearls, bamboo coaster, chinese style clothes pearls real but low quality $5-20. chinese toddler dress $8. great wall tshirt $3. plastic jewerly box $5. package of 6 decorated chopsticks $5.

Silk street: Silk Street

by Zoelin

For most tourists, the Silk Street Market has become a must for Beijing visitors, just like the Great Wall and the Forbidden City.You can find a large selection of bags, cases, shoes, watches, sporting goods as well as a wide range of fashionable clothes, many of which are international brands. In additional, Chinese traditional crafts and jewelry including jade, pearls and gems can also be found under the same roof. i thought most of them are FAKE...So,Good luck and happy bargain hunting!remember, if the seller says 500yuan,you can bargain to 250yuan.woo-hoo! I was planning to buy eider clothes for my winter,craft gifts for my colleagues.But I got nothing in silk street, I am a damn stupid pig don't know how to cut price at all! 1000RMB

Silk Street

by muddybok

I visited Silk Street 3 weeks after its grand opening. The Silk Street is famous for ALL-FAKE** goods.You can find North Face & Columbia jacket that are more North Face and Columbia. What I meant was the designs are more impressive than the original. Of course those winter wears are not made of high-tech materials.When I was there, the big notice warning vendors from selling merchandises bearing names such as LV, Dunhill, North Face, Guess and others. But you still can see those brands everywhere on display, even in the joints closest to the entrance.Note**: I think up to 99.9% of them are fake. Even iPod sold there are quite doubtful, they could be some stock overrun units. Anything you cannot afford the real ones. Ask for price 1/3 of their initial price, then add 10-30Yuan (depending on price range). They will try to close at 60% of initial price. Repeat you price 3 times, walk out...

Buying dress in China

by Shup

Although most of our clothes are manufactured in China, its doesn't say a word about the clothes that are sold in China. There is a fation gap between China and West world about 15 years. There alot of proper suits sold with reasonable price. Forget about last fation jeans. We didn't found anything to buy that will serve us after this trip

Pearl Market: Bargains Galore!!!

by jefferson66

There's no way to describe the Pearl Market. It's a mult-floor building filled with stand after stand of pearls and other jewelry, watches, handbags and purses, shoes, leather goods, clothing, electronics, artwork, tourist novelties, the list goes on.It's all about the haggling - they give you a high starting price (which is ridiculous), you counter with a low starting price (which is equally ridiculous), and you meet somwhere in the lower middle of the two. Everything is negotiable. When you have a price you don't want to raise, or if they're stubborn, it's simple... WALK AWAY. They will chase you down and agree to your price. You have to be ready to say NO. And don't let them fool you...they understand english better than anyone in Beijing.This is also the place to get all the copies of Rolex and Breitling watches, and for you ladies...it's Louis Vuitton heaven. But you won't see most...
