Shanghai
is one big shopping center, if you know what I mean. Your shopping desires
can be satiated here, as there are countless shopping streets and departmental
stores in Shanghai. Silk dresses would be good buys as Shanghainese tailors
are arguably the best in China. Other value-for-money items include down
jackets, stenciled T-shirts, gold and silver ornaments, enamelware, embroidered
clothing, tea, and antiques. Shoes and bags are reasonably priced, if
you are not too fussy about styles. Major shopping streets in Shanghai
are Nanjing Donglu, Huaihai Zhonglu, Ruijinlu, Sichuan Beilu, Jinling
Donglu, and Nanjing Xilu. However, shopping is a local pastime in Shanghai,
so be prepared to jostle your way through big crowds, especially during
weekends.
