on saturday and sunday mornings it turns into an outdoor market of sorts where peddlers line the already-narrow street with carts and wares spread out on blankets on the ground. the majority of the items appear to be antiques of some kind--old coins, mao-era paraphernalia, polished rocks and wood carvings, jewelry, etc. how much of it is authentic nobody knows. arts and crafts of various sorts are also sold here.
this area is a short walk from the center of downtown jinhua, which is easily accessible by bus from campus.
