Hong Ya Dong 洪崖洞
Check out the 3rd floor of Hong Ya Dong to find some of the most reasonably priced souvenirs around. Pick up some of the painted Huangjue leaves (the city tree), a deck of Communist propaganda cards, decorative snuff bottles, fine porcelain, or minority style clothing. It’s all available here.
Bus Tip: 小什字 Walk about 50 meters towards the river, if you see Starbuck’s you are there, just look for the escalators down
Light Rail Tip: 临江门 (Linjiangmen) Exit D (the Liberation Monument exit). From here to Hong Ya Dong should take between 5-10 minutes. From the exit walk straight ahead (away from Marriot). Follow the road as it curves right (then you’ll be facing Metropolitan Department Store). Take an immediate left (try to stay on the right side of the road)—must cross the street. Continue walking straight along the sidewalk until you get to the intersection of Jiang Jia Xiang and Lin Jiang Zhi Lu (corner of Wang Fu Jing Department Store). Cross Lin Jiang Zhi Lu and continue straight, cross again at Cang Bai Lu and take a right. When you see Starbuck’s on your left you’re there.
