Yiwu

[~Stormy~]

Yimu, never heard of this place in China before, a good suggestion would be to pick up a copy of Lonely Planet guide on China, very useful travel guide. If you are a foreigner and don't speak the language then prepare to be scammed by the locals. Don't be surprise when a cute chinese student approaches you and ask you to teach her English and take her to a coffee shop for a drink .....this is a normal bait scam at the coffee shop setup by the owner and the chinese student, they will charge you a cup or two of coffee for the price of ten, why? because you're a foreigner and it's easy money. I suggest you stick to Starbucks and McDonalds in China and if you want to get laid the fastest way is to go to a massage/sauan parlor and ask the manager for the menu which has the service and rates/pricing, hopefully the manager speaks basic English and accepts credit cards, they accept it in Hong KONg and Macau. have fun and stay out of trouble.

I am off to Yiwu in a couple of days and wondered if anyone on here had any information about the place.
Although I am used to the setup in Thailand and Indonesia where I have been loads of times I have never mongered in China.
I speak no Chinese whatsoever which may be a problem but any information anyone can give me would be helpful.
