Just don't buy anything. Everything is a reproduction, but the reproductions are among the best you can get.

Speak to the dealers and most will talk endlessly about how great the ancient artists who created their vaunted antiques were. And of the billions they spent on acquiring such masterpieces (though one feckless dealer told me that he spent merely 100 million RMB for his shop).

But do stroll around. This place has the best selection of "antiques" in Beijing.
