    Here you can buy anything and everything you need. Just remember to bargain a LOT. they will start at 500 and close at 20 .But smile all the time and remember,for you it may be only a few yuan, but for them it is a livelihood.
    shop till you drop.

    Silk Market: great for last minute present shopping

    • Name of Shop: Silk Market

    This is not just a silk market- but like the Pearl Market has everything you may want. You can get cheap shoes, clothes, handicrafts, silk and even electronics. In the basement is a food court (noisy but cheap) or if you prefer, try the pizza house next door which is quieter.
    the ground floor which you enter straight from the subway station (handy in the rain!) has shoes, leather goods and luggage. Watch out for the shouting which makes you lose track of the price you just offered them.The salesgirls' are really expert in bargaining. But you will surely find what you are looking to buy here.

    What To Buy: silk, pearls, cheap clothes, souvenirs, cheap electronics.
