A
Qipu Market
Consisting of two rundown, rabbit warren–like department stores surrounding the North Henan Rd intersection, Qipu Market is one big ‘everything must go now’ sale. Do as the locals do and push through the hordes of people searching for pretty much any item of clothing you can think of for around Y50. Haggle hard.

Cool Docks
A recent development project often billed as Xintiandi 2, the Cool Docks, east of the Old Town, consist of several shikumen (stone-gate houses) surrounded by red-brick warehouses near the waterfront. Most of the shops and restaurants had still failed to take off as ‘in’ destinations as we went to press.
