Yu Gardens Bazaar: Old Town Shanghai

by caslu

There are all sorts of shops in Old Town Shanghai's Yu Gardens Bazaar, most of which sell the usual tourist junk. However, we found a nice little art gallery where we purchased a beautiful horizontal wall hanging of Suzhou, the Venice of China. Sadly, I can't recall the name of the particular shop but Yu Gardens is hard to miss. There's lots of junk but my favorite purchase was the silk painting we bought here in Shanghai. The exchange rate is good so everything was reasonably priced, especially after some hard bargaining.

Stalls and Wholesale: Shopping in Guangzhou and Guilin

by VivianChang

I was in Guangzhou last year and back from Guilin two weeks ago.Guangzhou will have more to shop especially Shangxiajiu Road and nearby Renmin Road and most have price tag. Normally I haggled down 50% and if the items are price tagged they normally do not give you further discount unless you are buying a lot. I noticed in Shangxiajiu Road in Guangzhou things are cheaper than Beijing Lu of course Beijing Lu most of the clothes, bags are of better quality. If you are going to Yangshuo, souvenirs are cheaper than Guilin. I saw bracelets in Yangshuo selling at RMB5 but there were selling at RMB10 at Guilin.If you are having your meals at restaurant in Yangshuo ladies that approach you selling souvenirs are even cheaper. Small handmade souvenirs costing RMB10 for 3 pieces at the stalls. When those ladies approach you if you are not keen to buy they even go down to RMB10 for 6 pieces, but the...

Li-Ning Sportswear, Beijing: China's largest sportswear manufacturer

by hopang

Li-Ning Sports shops deal in good quality sportswear, sports shoes and other sports accessories which are said to be manufactured in the People's Republic of China. The Company (Li-Ning Sports Co Ltd) is the largest sportswear producer in China. Two shops dealing in Li-Ning sports apparels are located at Wangfujing Street in the heart of Beijing, i.e. one on the left side of the street and the other on the right. The shop as depicted in our photographs above has four levels of shopping spaces and is elegantly decorated and illuminated, well furnished with quality stocks and is never short of manpower. We bought several pairs of Li-Ning sweaters and t-shirts from the shop above. Li-Ning sports shoes are also highly recommended to be purchased from the shop. The prices of Li-Ning sports goods are fixed. Sweaters cost between 200.00 and 500.00 rmb and t-shirts between 100.00 and 300.00...

Bargaining in China

by MikeySoft

Below is a link to a youtube video demonstrating how to bargain in China. It is a tongue in cheek demonstration. It starts off a little slow but shows some humor in bargining. I found this video on youtube, I'm not the one doing the bargining in the video. Tourist prices are very inflated in China. Many people believe they should offer1/2 the asking price in markets for souvenirs. Actually, you should not pay more then1/2 the asking price. Don't be afraid to offer a really low price like 10%. Then work up but NEVER pay more then 1/2 the asking price unless you really want it and can't control yourself . I often end up only paying about 25% of the asking price.Keep it friendly and smile. I have found that saying "Yi Kuai" with a smile is a good ice breaker. They often laugh, not because they want a higher price, but because they are surprised you know a little Chinese and you are joking....

Mingya Epoch Jewelry: Pearl Market

by Penelope4

There are three floors which sell pearls at the Hongqiao Market. The gesture of the two salesladies attracted me to go inside the shop (others ask passers-by to enter their shops immediately). They could not speak English well so I managed to look around their shop without getting asked every minute (ha!). And then the owner came. Ms. Hong Fei speaks very mildly and was not pushy at all. She did not mind if I was interested in buying resh water and sea water pearls although I mentioned that I would love to have a Tahitian one but my cash will not be enough for a small piece. She was very patient and even personalized my pieces at a good price (she made bargaining very enjoyable). And yes, I had a bottle of water for free and I left the shop with some pieces that included a beautiful Tahiti pearl pendant. At the Pearl Market, you will find pearls, jade, fake brand goods, luggage,...

Nanjing Road: Nanjing Road

by graeme83

Nanjing Road to Shanghai is what Wangfujing Street is to Beijing. It is the main shopping street of the city. It leads from the Bund to the People's Park. The part of the road near the Bund (Nanjing Road East) is open to traffic and has smaller shops. Further west the road becomes pedestrainised and home to the biggest department stores and shopping centres. There are a couple of western chains, such as McDonalds and KFC on the road near the People's Park.

Wangfujing Street: Wangfujing Street

by graeme83

Located in the Dongcheng District of Beijing (a couple of blocks east of the north side of Tianamen Square) is arguably the most famous shopping street in China. Most of the road is completely pedestrianised, with Oriental Plaza at one end and Sun Dong An Plaza at the other. There are many interesting shops and department stores to have a browse around. At night most of the stores close and are replaced by a kind of tourist night market.In the south western corner of the street is a small area sometimes called "snack street." Here you can find some strange snacks such as deep fried insects and scorpions.

One dollar, one dollar!!

by Marthamaire

US dollars welcome in China but be sure to bargainTwo of the things I buy when I travel are stamps and coins. Vendors on the streets in Beijing are everywhere, yelling out, “One dollar, one dollar.” Be sure and bargain. A man approached me with a lovely collection of stamps. He started out at ten dollars. I eventually purchased the collection for $2.00.

The 2 RMB Store: Cheap Souvenir Shop

by graeme83

About 5 minute walk south of Tianamen Square I came across a store where most items cost 2RMB. Also in this shop was a small tourist section with items costing slightly more. Here I picked up a small Terracotta Warrior for about a dollar as well as a few other things. The prices in this shop were more than 50% cheaper here than anywhere else I saw in ChinaTo get here from Tianamen Square head south along Meishi Jie Road about 500 meters (to the 4th zebra crossing) then turn left on to Da Zha Lan Xi Jie market street. Then walk for about 100 metres and you will see it on the left hand side.
