Re: Jing Du Textile City (Jingdu Shiji - Muxiyuan Fabric Market)
Known to many expats as Muxiyuan Fabric Market - OR Fabric Mecca - THIS is how to get there...
Take the south second ring road, heading west. Take the exit to
Yongdingmenwai Dajie (half way along south second ring) and do a loop
around the large gate house and head south on Yongdingmenwai.
Cross over the south third ring road. You will see the massive set of
buildings on your right - the Muxiyuan Da Sha buildings.
Continue on and take a left at the next set of traffic lights you come
to. Go to the end of this street and turn right. That is the Muxiyuan
fabric market street.
Continue along this street - it will be slow and packed with people and
carts and cars - until you reach the big red traditional Chinese gates of the market (probably at least 600-800m along the street).
The right hand side part of the market is cottons and other fabrics.
The left hand side of the road is silk.
