Chengdu Shopping Markets

Night Market
The best place to pick up all these souvenirs is at the night market near Jinjiang Hotel. The market offers all kinds of weird and wonderful goods from embroidered silk to statues of Chairman Mao. Don not forget bargain. Prices are not set in stone and quoted prices will be much higher than what the stall owner will accept.

Jinli Ancient Street
Jinli Ancient Street is designed in the style of the Qing Dynasty. Many shops, teahouses, bars, and restaurants along the street are designed with traditional architectural style. In the evening, it is the time when Jinli really comes to life. The streets are lit with traditional red lanterns and the locals come out to walk the street and do some window shopping. It is an excellent place to purchase arts and crafts unique to Chengdu.

Chun Xi Lu Shopping District
Chun Xi Lu Shopping District is the most hip and popular district. It is quite large and its main street is on a north, south axis. Chun Xi Lu is a pedestrian street, which means that no vehicles are allowed on it making it a safe place to stroll and do a bit of window shopping.

He Hua Ci Wholesale Shopping District
