8 Days Beijing + Shanghai Twin Cities

Day 5: Beijing

Tianjin 天津 -> Beijing SouXiu Market aka Silk Market 秀水市场





I remembered after we boarded the bus, we had a 2hr ride to Tianjin 天津 but we took like 3 hrs to reach there due to traffic congestion. Tony (tour guide) said the bus driver had to drive another 2 hrs back to Beijing South Railway Station to wait us there, while we took a bullet train back.

We were brought to Tianjin Food Street 天津食品街 since 天津 is famous for their 狗不理包子, is just a normal meat pau.












Tianjin Raiway Station 天津火车站






























^Took only 45 mins to reach Beijing




We were taken to somewhere but too bad I've forgotten where it was....
So just look at the pics will do...














^Bought some of the local delicacies in that shop






After that place, we were brought to SouXiu Market aka Silk Market 秀水市场






^Spent my money most over here....




Actually, on that day, we also went to Silk Factory 帝珍丝绸 & Pearl Factory 天阔珍珠. Those places are snored, so dun even bother to take pics. Anyway, if U're going to China those places are a MUST to see.... So see yourself, just remember NOT to buy will do...
