I finally went to Dong Jiao Market... and wow, they sell everything!

It is known for the kitchen/hotel/restaurant wholesale items, but
they have sooo much more. You need a few hours to see it all, and I
do not suggest bringing children, although older teenagers who love
discovering great finds at markets would have a blast. Patience is a
must as it is soooo huuuge!

Also, the stall owners did not approach me or bother me at all, the
no-smoking inside seemed to be taken seriously. It is absolutely not
a tourist market, although expect some bargaining.

It is just of the 4th ring road, where you turn right to go to GuoMao - sorry, not good directions I know.

I think most drivers will know it.

It is HUGE HUGE HUGE, sections I managed to see a bit of are below,

... each section has it's own huge building (or section within the building) or outdoor area, and you can walk from one building to the other very easily. It is actually well
organised. There is also a section with cooked foods, so you can
easily have a snack or eat lunch.

Kitchen supplies - huge sinks, huge rice cookers, funky looking
coffee machines, great dishes (white in a variety of nice shapes and
some stalls with creative coloured dishes that were beautiful),
forks, spoons, chopsticks, etc... glasses, cooking utensils, meat
cutters (like what you see in a deli!), anything a restaurant or hotel kitchen would need...

Bags - suitcases, purses, other

Home Stuff - bins, buckets, mops, containers for the
bathroom/kitchen, cleaning brushes, etc...

Office supplies - pens, desk lights for home or office,

Decorations - christmas, chinese, beaded hanging things for doorways, other

Fabric - sheets, fabric, towels, floor mats, car carpets, car seat
covers, etc... didn't look closely

Clothing - didn't look, but saw some kids, mens, womens

Shoes - lots and lots of shoes in the back of one building, but I
didn't look closely.

Chinese Tea - didn't look at this section

Fish - didn't look

Fruit and Vegetables - didn't look

Flower market - apparently further down there is a section with
flowers, but I didn't even get close enough to see it!

And there were whole other sections I didn't even see from the
outside...

Anyway, if you like markets, and seeing that everything really is
made in China, then you'll have fun here.
