Hi Blog,
I just love to understand how other people live their life in a different environment/world from me. Like if they won't be spending money to shopping malls or super markets for their daily needs, so where will they be.
 |
| MQ brought us to a flea-market and maybe we might find something interesting there. |
The flea-market is situated at Chinese BaRoQue District. (

 |
| After a 20 mins ride... |
 |
| We had arrived to a wide parade square |
 |
| This place seems deserted |
This place has a 200+ years old based on the local and the government is trying their best to preserve it.
 |
| For me... |
 |
| Perfect for pictures! XD |
 |
| Just look at the structure of the building. Honestly, I don't see such structure for new buildings unless it is for the RICH. |
 |
| I love this small electrical vehicle and my mother can fit one in herself. Slow but good for environment. |
 |
| OOOO here is the flea-market! |
Funny thing is, with such a historical structure in the background, it helps to contrast the irregular stall setup and brings out some 'culture' to the whole flea-market here.
 |
| Looked like a busy market here |
 |
| It is like a 'carousel' alive |
 |
| I wondered what is this for. |
 |
| At least their goods are still clean and decent |
 |
| Looked like it stretches quite a distance but we only covered a small portion of the flea-market (I wish I can cover every corner) |
 |
| If I stay in Harbin, I will buy one or two items from them |
 |
| But there are a lot of similar goods |
 |
| It is like a treasure hunt here |
From what I observed, most of the goods that they sell here, are some old display-items and clothing. If you don't mind second-hand items, here will be your treasure hunting ground.
 |
| I felt so bad for the fox fur... |
 |
| I wanted to bring it back home to take care of it (like a live pet) but I know if I bought it, I will be a part of "supporting fur-hunting activity" and Singapore doesn't allow such goods. |
 |
| The building structure is kept and preserved as how 200+ years ago will be. |
 |
| It was a short tour to witness Harbin-citizen's weekend lifestyle and past construction style. |
 |
| Beautiful district |
 |
| I wished I can take more pictures with a DSLR |
Next stop we will visit something exciting
Day 2 - Harbin - SongHua River 松花江

Notice that you are wearing many layers. F and E trip with a local can cover many more areas where guided tours may not cover.
ReplyDeleteI think I wore three layers, so I won't feel cold. We suppose to travel to explore more but the local's vehicle can't cover so far
