| Do you know about the Pearl Market? Hongqiao Shichang is the Chinese name I think. It's absolutely fantastic. A large portion of the top floor is dedicated to pearls. About 4 years ago, I was able to get a set of two earrings, a necklace and a bracelet (authentic pretty pink pearls) for no more than $10 US...and the more you buy, the lower your prices will be. I think the market is located near the Temple of Heaven...definitely worth your time! Hope that helps! |
