For incredible cheap products head to the clothing and trinket store lined Guoqing (国庆路) and Ganquan roads (甘泉路). Don’t be afraid to bargain here as well. Any items normally found in Yangzhou's touristy areas can be found on these streets for half the price. This area is within the old section of Yangzhou, and its tree lined narrow streets exudes a very different, time warped feel when compared with other parts of the city. The junction of Guoqing and Ganquan roads marks the historic center of Yangzhou, a location fortunately still without a stop light. Riding a pedicab through this area is a classic way to explore Old Yangzhou.

Located in the Xinjiekou downtown area, the Gold Eagle Shopping Centre symbolizes the top level of consumerism in Nanjing.

Brands include CARA, ELANIE, JESSICA and udb for womens clothing and Dior, Lancome, Estee Lauder, Elizabeth Arden and Vichy for cosmetics. The prices are even quite high when compared with the same products in Europe. Also, Gold Eagle does not offer large discounts or promotions like some other stores.
