If you want a glimpse of old China here is the place to be! It has all the shops you want for clothing, food etc but it has the feel of latter years that is just about going to be changed. Actually the new area over the river is far better for just about everything except the atmosphere. I am sure it will not be classified as the main area soon!

You have to see this street at night to appreciate its beauty with the lights shinning on the river next door from the street & houses along it Truly beautiful And the shops lots of them & eateries even Burger King
