WESTERN MARKET

Western Market is a Edwardian building, restored in 1991, home to about Chinese fabrics and crafts shops. In the vicinity (Bonham Strand East and West, Sutherland Street, Wing Lok Street…), the streets carve out an impressive wholesale market of all kinds of medicinal plants and terrestrial or salted marine or sea-to-sea (to each evil). These stores feed the city's herboristeries and represent the mainstay of Chinese medicine. A walk not to be missed. What can be impressed with the quantities exposed and the appearance of certain products that are difficult to identify (dried snakes, giant mussels, deer horns…? !), all nicely and perfectly presented.
