Venturing farther from our home this week, we traversed Beijing’s sprawling subway system to Tiananmen Square to say hi to Mao’s gigantic portrait and explore the bustling nearby Donghuamen Night Market. The Spring Festival celebrating the new year is winding down but the market was still packed.
We haggled with vendors by punching in offers and counter-offers into a four-function calculator. I’m not sure what “a good price” for a panda hat is but I managed to knock a couple of Yuan off the initial asking price.
