Xiu Shui Silk Market

It reopened for business in its shiny new 5 storey shopping mall on March 19th 2005 replacing the infamous original outdoor Xiu Shui market. In doing so, it has become the inner city's one stop tourist shopping paradise. It's name is now written in English across the entrance as simply "Silk Street". Apart from the almost real-looking designer wear which was present at the old market, you can now enjoy shopping for a wealth of traditional Chinese knick knacks to bring home for your family.

[ Pearl products are also welcomed at Beijing Xiushui Silk Market ]
If you don't have too much time for shopping in Beijing, this could be the only place you need to visit.In this new market, the store assistants are much better trained in both customer service and language skills, most sporting a bright red jacket with the Xiu Shui logo on it and an official looking ID badge.

What about the price?
Prices are generally very reasonable here compared to your home country and if you are a skilled bargainer, you might be able to get things ridiculously cheap.
