Guangzhou-Shengzhen-Hong Kong - Day 3

Third day in Gangzhou. Today's plan is more shopping for textiles and electronic items. First stop to Baiyun textile again as some of us have made booking earlier. ...




As mentioned earlier each complex is huge and full of all sort of textiles..Everywhere you look cloths everywhere and full of activities. People carting their goods up and down the alleys, lifts, tri-cycles, vans etc



Everyone here uses these modified electric bicycles to get around ....cool 



Business transactions done on the go....


Another modified type of electric bicycle.....this time with an umbrella attached for the cyclist and his passenger


While some of our friends does their shopping, we were left waiting waiting waiting waiting....(sampai bila kena wait sahaja daaaaa? 
Later we found out that the materials we ordered yesterday has not arrived thus causing the delay ....haiyaa 


Finally one part done..Next we took a taxi to our next target destination. Off to Tianhe district where its well know for its electronic products.
Some view of the city below.......the Canton tower view again (bila teringat masih frust sebab tak dapat naik cable car huhuhu)


More high rise buildings in the making....(the fastest rising economy in the world for now !!)




The taxi dropped us to one of the area at Tianhe district but its not what we were looking for. There was only few shops selling electronics and mostly consists of offices.

After asking for directions from few people, we were shown the way to the shopping district. This time we plan to take the bus. So we walked for some distance towards the bus terminal




The terminal is large, clean and the bus services is efficient......







We reached our destination but to cross to the other side of the road we need to walk down the subway and up again. The first round was unsuccessful as we exited on the wrong side of the street.
So off to the subway again...phuhhhh huhuhu @^#&$$%$ at last reached the other side



Entered the shopping center which was a high end shopping mall....Naaahh not our taste and budget...

Wish we had the Batmobile here to bring us around the city hehehehe



Saw this Pappa Roti outlet....sounds like Malaysian yaaa ....roti roti roti. So we stopped by for light tea break and had some bread..
Waaaahhhhh ada teh tarik Malaysian style!!!



After tea break we went out from the mall and took separate taxi to a nearby electronic shopping mall. But alas we did not meet the next group. So we went separated ways again.

This is where we bought some camera accessories selling at a bargain.



Then we wandered around looking for our fellow friends but sadly did not find them. We went throughout all over area and there were rows and rows of shop selling computer gadgets, reconditioned notebook and desktops, power banks, usb ports etc...you name it and you got it here....From the looks of it does not look quite genuine though...

After failing to find them we headed to Beijing Lu for dinner and back to hotel for quick shower



Then off to Shangxiajiu Pedestrian Street again to the shop at where we promised to go yesterday.


Ms Tina - the friendly and patience sales. (Kedai dah tutup pun boleh buka balik gara-gara layan karenah kami sampai tutup kedai pukul 1:30 pagi hehehehe)


I want that pleaseeeeee.......



After tense price negotiations and not forgetting our Malaysian habit (ada free give tak????), we went back to our hotel after a long and tiring day.

Tomorrow, we will check out and leave Guangzhou for Shengzhen yeaaaaaa

C u in the next updates
