Again, like dining, the shopping overview of Shaanxi is in fact one mainly concerning Xi"an. There is really
not much noteworthy about Yan"an,
except, however, for those after Mao badges and other "communist" souvenirs. Such
things are rarer these days, and a purchase of such goods could be a wise investment. Xi"an, a capital
city of ancient China and highly tourist orientated city of modern China, has no lack of
shopping specialties. No matter what you are looking for, handicrafts, replicas of
cultural relics and even musical instruments, the city is bound to provide you with
approximates of what you are looking for. As with other places, you should compare the
prices of a specific item at different places before making purchases. The city, like
Yan"an to the north, is particularly good for those after cultural items. |
