What to buy: We dropped at this shop to buy combs made from bull's angle. What attracted us was the woman who was making combs there - you don't have to worry that what you buy is fake. We heard such combs are very good for blood circulation - good for health. You can also write your own words on the comb too.

The shops are everywhere in Zhouzhuang selling souvenirs, crafts, clothings etc. The people will pester you to enter to buy things. Remember to bargain and cut the prices by at least two thirds.
