Also Bangkok, it has almost the same character as Hong kong except traffic jam. So, what about yours. What does its character look like.

When traveling in HK and Bangkok, I often compare prices with our local prices. Often, I find our prices cheaper. Not so in Shanghai and Shenzhen, China. In Shanghai, shopping is a must. But one has to be prepared to haggle like crazy. After about 3 purchases, you get the hang of it and should be able to haggle more confidently! | Mell Mell Post Count: 15391 Msg: #3 14 weeks ago, September 24th 2009 | Hello Teya | I like when there is a variety of shop types, with good prices and also the types of luxury good I am willing to pay more for. Most important is that there is a place to relax. Ideally this would be a cafe with a nice view. An example of this would be the Dome cafe in the Stephens Green Shopping centre in Dublin, Ireland. It is at the top of the shopping centre and has a great view of Stephens Green. There is a small picure of it in the following link. Dome Restaurant I also love the outdoor Viktualian market in Munich, Germany. It is a great place to hang out anytime. It is particularly pretty at times like Christmas. Viktualian Markt And there are lots more that I love around the world. I will post more of them later.

When it come to home decoration, Bangkok is a paradise...oh, yes, we just moved into paradise and I like it so much... And for food, I love the fresh food in New Zealand....even the smaller supermarkets have an amazing choice... Number of Users: 4 | Number of Posts: 4 | ||||||||||||
