There are many things that you have to think about before you Travel to Beijing, one of them is packing your baggage. However, it is difficult to know what kind of clothes and how many we should take? If you do not know what to bring with you, do not worry, you can find almost all the clothes you want in Beijing. What is more, you can find some beautiful items in ethnic style. So here are my clothes shopping suggestions for China Tours.
1. Xidan 
This area has many different shopping options and it is regarded as the most popular shopping district in Beijing. Xidan Market is the place where local Beijingers go shopping for bargains and it has recently been modernized. A wide range of merchandise is available along with a friendly and helpful staff which makes shopping here extremely interesting: jewelry stores, clothing shops, shoe stores, electronics, books, tiny ma and pa shops, large department stores, etc. As the “heart” of the shopping district, the must-visit place in Xidan is the “Xidan Shopping Center” building. It is said that the price of products in this place are the real prices that locals pay rather than the inflated prices for tourists.
2. Wangfujing Street
This is Beijing’s busiest commercial area and is normally full of shoppers. It is a fairly long street and it takes you over 30 minutes to walk from one end to the other. However, most of the time, prices of products here are a little higher than in other shopping streets in Beijing and no bargaining is allowed here. Usually, the weekend is the most crowded time.
3. Qianmen Shopping Street
The Qianmen shopping street is an ancient shopping street outside Qianmen Gate. It has old brand shops and restaurants, such as Tongrentang Pharmacy, Neiliansheng Shoe Shop, Ruifuxiang Silk and Cotton Fabrics Shop, Quanyechang, Zhang Yiyuan Tea Store and Majuyuan Hat Store. Ruifuxiang silk has been a famous old brand of silk products since it was founded. The store is elegantly designed and once you enter through the door of Ruifuxiang, you will feel as if you are entering a palace of silk products. There are various types of silk here.
4. Sanlitun Market 
Located on Sanlitun Lu, Chaoyang District, near the northeast embassy area, the Sanlitun Street is a very popular destination amongst foreign visitors for its bars, clubs and restaurants. However, Sanlitun Street is also famous for its clothes market because all kinds of clothes can be found there. But it is not cheap and goods there have higher prices.
5. Zoo Market
Compared to all the rest of the markets, the zoo market is the cheapest clothing market in Beijing. It is located beside the Beijing zoo. This market sells almost everything from clothes to shoes, bags, hair accessories, sporting equipment, jewelry and more at a reasonable price. What is more, it is a paradise for bargainers, so if you are really good at bargaining, you can get what you want at a very low price. A key rule is to bargain with a smile to improve your chances of getting the price you want. Another tip is to buy more than one item to get a better price.
The market is open from 4am to 5pm daily.
I hope you have a great time in China. For more information, please check china travel.
