This is one of the city’s oldest commercial shopping streets and is the place to find Traditional Chinese Medicine shops, along with tea and herb specialists. The area has a vibrant atmosphere and is full of eager shoppers purchasing all kinds of healing remedies and ointments. You’d better visit soon though, as there are plans to convert the street into a modern commercial area, in preparation for the 2008 Olympic Games. If you do visit, don’t miss Tongrentang Traditional Medicine Shop founded in 1669, which now has branches around the world. If you want a consultation, it’s best to call ahead.
