Shopping in Beijing

Beijing must be one of the world's greatest shopping adventures! If you enjoy a treasure hunt for things such as authentic or copy labels in clothing, shoes, electronics, sunglasses, flowers, carpets, furniture, tea sets and furniture from a range of Chinese dynasties, Beijing offers all of this, and more, in modern shopping malls or local markets.

A shopping experience in Beijing can range from rewarding, exciting, crazy and fun to loud, frustrating, tiring, and crowded, depending on your attitude.

Expect to find more friends than you ever thought you knew, if you shop in the markets like the Silk Market ( Xiushui), Zhongguancun Electronics Market, Sanlitun Yashow clothing market, 3.3 Clothing market, Panjiayuan market (the famous Dirt Market) or Hong Qiao Pearl Market. Each of these markets offers an enormous range of goods for sale. You will feel a huge sense of accomplishment as you take zeros off the prices offered to you while bargaining and buying multiple items for the price of one back home.

If you can't find the clothes to suit your needs then simply buy the fabric in one of the markets and have them made to order with a perfect fit. There are many tailors waiting to help you in and around the markets.

Needing respite from bargaining, then try one of the many modern shopping malls for a sometimes quieter experience. Landao, Full Link Plaza, Pacific Century (Sanlitun – opposite Ya Show market on Gongti Beilu), Lufthansa, Cofco Plaza and Hualian (Wanjing area), Oriental Plaza or Sundongan Plaza (either end of downtown Wangfujing Daije) are some of the malls on offer.

Antiques, real or copy, and furniture can be found in Beijing Curio City (Dong Sanhuan Lu), Chaowai Furniture market (south third ring road, near Panjiayuan market), Gaobeidian (off Jingtong expressway), George's Antiques (Shunyi, toward the airport off Jingshan Lu), at Liulichang Culture Street or Liangma Antique market.

Shopping doesn't get much better than Beijing, so go out and have some dynamic fun!
