                       For antique-lovers
Locals and tourists alike scavenge for every imaginable imitation antique at this chaotic four-floor warehouse.

For cheap souvenirs, it's hard to beat the red and black enamel boxes, laughing Buddhas, and mock-Tibetan jewellery. A permanent market sits on the first and second floors, while at weekends sellers from the countryside fill up the rest of the building.
