Under one roof are about 400 separate little shops, all related in one way or another to photography. There are dealers in new brand-name equipment, dealers in Chinese-made "copies" of brand- name goods, and even shops that sell nothing but make-up for models or wedding photo albums. I picked up a Chinese camera bag that looks remarkably like a Domke (but is actually better built) for about US $12.00. I'm afraid I can't help you with directions, but I'll be in Beijing in two weeks and hopefully will visit again with Adrian. Bryan On Jun 28, 2005, at 12:27 PM, Peter M. C.
