Loved the wandering little maze of streets with cool shops, funky resturants and bars, its a comforting scale compared to the rest of the city.

What a great and interesting place to visit - although it's bustling and packed even "off-peak" so keep your wits about you and expect all your senses to be bombarded!

You my be paying a little extra here but what a great place to spend an hour or so to shop or take a drink. This place is a maze of small alleyways with a thousand tiny shops selling almost anything. It is worth a visit just for the atmosphere, soak up a peice of real China in an otherwise... More

A nice place to while a few hours and a good photography place. Small lanes of traditional 20's hutons now filled with a variety of boutiques and cafes. I like to go of an evening find a small bar and sit out and people watch. Commune does good coffee and lamb wraps
