Expensive, rich))). Everything is focused on trading. Almost all sellers speak Russian. There is no language barrier. The price tags are different, they are traded. The prices for hotel accommodation in winter are cheaper than in summer. There are two possible menus in restaurants
They differ only in prices (for regular customers it is cheaper), the portions are large.
The people are friendly. You can find almost everything, from brands to handicrafts. Every store or cafe has Wi-Fi, they connect without problems. You don't have to buy a local SIM card. And if the phone supports the e-sim function, then use WhatsApp, VK without problems.
Yes, Russian merchants are called "KEMELS" here. A derivative of the English camel))). I come here almost once a month for work
In general, it looks a little empty inside, but on the ground floor we found cool jeans, I regret that we did not buy more, from 4th street there is a boutique with cool inexpensive high-quality clothing for women and men (different T-shirts for 60 yuan, shorts for 40 yuan and pants) you need to go down 4th street towards wen min. The hostess herself works in this boutique, a young Chinese woman, so pleasant, speaks Russian very well. On the second floor we came across a boutique with socks and underpants - for a penny we collected full packages of high-quality socks. There is a cosmetics store - what they didn't buy there))) so if you search, you can find everything. In general, we liked Manchuria, to shop and eat delicious food, take a walk, look at another country for a little money, why not))) let's go again.
The complex has access from 5th and 4th streets. A typical Manchurian shopping complex. If you walk around, you can choose something. The city is borderline, so the price tags and quality are not the best. There is a grocery supermarket in the basement. Further down 5th Street, there are exchangers.
A very nice and beautiful shopping center, a large selection of goods. But simultaneously with the appreciation of the yuan, sellers have raised prices high and often deceive buyers using the language barrier.
Yes, it used to be very good, wonderful. The yuan is expensive now , and prices are biting . It is easier to buy goods on online platforms. Only as a tourist , I do not recommend taking the goods from the word at all .
In this shopping center, you can buy almost everything you need, except electronics, prices are affordable, good discounts in the evening, friendly sellers, I recommend.
This market is a grocery market, it has everything you need for food. The price tag is like on a regular market. The abundance of products is very large, there is something to choose and you need to bargain.
There are a lot of shops, you can find a lot of things both necessary and trinkets. There is a large supermarket in the basement. But it's dirty everywhere (as it is all over the city in Manchuria)
Take a lot of tourists if you want, if you go further, as the Chinese women say right now, but again they do not lag behind with their jokes, breaking the price twice
The best days of this shopping complex have already passed. It is now a semi-empty shopping mall. The best thing it has now is a supermarket on the minus 1st floor
We were in Manchuria on the weekend, visited a shopping complex, everything is very cool, there is a large selection of goods, the Chinese are friendly, everything is culturally and pleasantly.
In comparison with the Trans-Baikal border area, the city of Manzhuria is being built at an unprecedented pace, is being improved, is developing infrastructure, and attracts tourists not only from the Russian side, but also from all over the PRC. The difference is huge not just at times in all parameters — hundreds of times far from in our favor and in terms of living standards, roads and transport interchanges, landscaping, catering, recreation, education, energy supply, cultural development.
I want to say nothing good, after the pandemic, everything is different and everything is different. There is nothing in the markets, that's how they were closed 4 years ago, and opened as yesterday, nothing new, just dirt. And in general, Manchuria is a beauty! Dumplings, Peking duck , sauna, all this on the first street - class! Wang Quan is the best, things are fire, well, you can buy good things in boutiques, but not in the market.
After the pandemic, Chinese entrepreneurs who missed us are trading well, you can go and dress the whole family inexpensively. The Chinese are still outrageously polite
An ordinary Chinese woman!
Consumer goods are on sale as they were 10 years ago, and prices are even higher than in Chita.
You can do without these purchases!
The Toga complex "Manchuria". The range of products is huge, the prices are inexpensive, you can bargain. There is a huge supermarket on the ground floor, the prices are reasonable, the assortment is huge. It is located within walking distance from the hotels.
A large complex, there are cafes on the last floor. You can drink beer, and the children can play. The ascent is on escalators, the passages are numbered.. It's easy to find where you've been. It is especially convenient to walk there in winter)
