What to buy: There's a China Post booth at the start of Tian Jie selling various sets of Taishan postcards (we saw 4 kinds). Regardless of which one you buy, they'll stamp each of those with a commemorative postage stamp making this one of the best souvenirs for Taishan that I found. Note that these kind of stamps are only for commemorative value, it doesn't affect the "useability" of the postcard. This booth also sells stamps, and the post box is just a few steps away.
What to pay: The cheapest was 16 RMB and has no postage included. The most expensive was 35 RMB and has postage included.
