Dong Men
Dong Men 东门
Dong Men is a shopping district consisting of department stores, supermarkets, shops and stalls. It is centred on two parallel pedestrian streets with several smaller streets and alleys traversing it, creating a labyrinth in which every available space is used to sell something. Shops range from holes-in-the-wall to retail chains like Baleno, Giordano and the odd foreign brand shop, such as Addidas. Fashion wear, sports wear, jewellery, shoes, handbags, toys, CDs, DVDs, video games, traditional medicine...the list goes on and on. Touts guide punters to massage houses, nail salons and tattoo parlours. Occasionally, monks offer palm readings. Except for retail chain stores with prices clearly displayed, bargaining will be required.

Re: Dong Men
Namely the east gate of Shenzhen city, dated back to a few decades ago when Shenzhen was small and undeveloped. Now it has become a famous shopping area, the so-called pedestrian street from where you could collect lots of thing, clothes, shoes, suitcase,etc. And lots of restaurants have been set up to greet many visitors.
Re: Dong Men
It's a so active place for shopping! You can find everything you want in Dongmen, but need to get ready for the crowds, many people, especially during weekends!
