The famous Silk Market where everything is for sale. Not just silk. Jewellery, tailored suits, hand bags, shoes, clothes, trinkets, prescription eyeglasses are all for sale. No prices are posted. Buyers invariably offer and purchase items for 15% of the initial asking price. Very agressive selling tactics used by the vendors. Not for the faint of heart. Very exhausting work but there are indeed very good buys available.China - Beijing - Xiushui "Silk Market"
