>Markets in Shanghai

>









We visited the "antiques" market, the Jiangyin Lu Bird and Flower market, the Yuyuan Gardens and Bazaar, and a wet market (fish, vegetables, etc.), in Shanghai. The Chinese are attached to both birds and crickets as pets. Men own crickets that fight each other. Ruth ended up going home with two VERY heavy ceramic ducks for her garden that we then dragged across China and back to Hong Kong--these were the ducksters. We practices our negotiating skills.
