Beijing material market




Edward, Andreas and I found and visited the textile material market in Beijing. They have lots of fabrics, buttons, buckles etc. I don't show any material, don't know why I didn't take any pictures of that area. Maybe because we were busy looking at material. They have also very typical Beijing/Chinese street food and city environment. The top photo is the steaming of dumplings. They have them in small wooden cylinders and the steam pass through them. At the food market we bought sucker canes. They peel it and you bite of one piece, chew it and spit it out again. Rather tasty but not delicious. On the way back we got stuck in traffic as always. The traffic in Beijing really sucks! You can't be stressed, because it never goes fast. Sigh...
