A weekend in Taichung with little on the agenda meant I had time to explore some parts of the city that I had not yet seen. Including the Jade Market.

Sitting along Taichung's DaDun 20th street and next to a Mercedes Benz/Smart dealer, the market is set up with dozens of vendors hawking their wares.

Jade jewelry:

Other ornamental stone carvings:



Necklaces:

Dangly things (sorry, I don't know what they're really called):

Teapots and more:


Earthenware:

Porcelain:

Old-school calculators:

Guy plucking at a string instrument:

And Buddah:

It's too bad that I am not really in to Eastern/Chinese art. Otherwise I could have spent a small fortune there.
