Chinese street markets

Roaming the streets of Chengdu... allows for some secret treasures to be found.

A friend and I took the bus down to Wenshu Monastery (where we had the vegetarian dinner a few weeks ago) to explore in the daylight.  Outside the monastery are all of these side streets filled with little kiosks selling everything from prayer beads to childrens toys... to good luck charms and clothing. 

Seldom do I purchase anything unless I have my local learning partner with me to assist with the price, but I enjoy browsing or "window" shopping.  Today was no different... didn't buy a single item but spent a lot of time perusing the wares!
