CHONGQING (CQNEWS) -- "Shancheng" watches, plain-looking thermoses, enamel basins painted with peony flowers and other old objects can remind us of previous memories. Dongjiaxi Flea Market, located at Huaxin Street, becomes popular due to the information communication by young people. It also is a new attraction, just like Hongyadong and Eling TESTBED 2. Some netizens even commented that “if you miss this flea market, you may lose the way to really know Chongqing.” Would you like to come here to visit it in the National Day holidays?

Dongjiaxi Flea Market is just below Huaxinjie Station of Line 3, with most of merchants who moved from Yuzhong Zhongxing Road Flea Market in 2010.

Old objects are closely involved in people's daily life, including electronic products, general merchandise, electrical appliances, shoes, household appliances. From these objects, you can know the former condition of the mountain city - Chongqing.

Zone A on the 4th floor accepts most of tourists who come to hang out and pick up something. Here your eyes are occupied by the old objects, such as the cassette player. The old music produced from the player may make you remember the old-time things. Look, the mother cannot wait to take a picture of her daughter.

Vendors are just to earn for price difference in most of time. With the popularity of the market and more and more people visiting, the vendors can make more money in the current days.

In this market, watch refers to "three-high" goods: high price, high popularity and high trading volume. If lucky, you can buy a set of "Shancheng" watch, which was popular in Chongqing.

What old objects are easy to sell? It depends on the age, brand and completeness of the old items. Look, the man was studying the guitar he just bought to figure out its brand, origin, and age so as to make price.

Mr. Zhang, who used to set up a stall at Zhongxing Road Flea Market, said he would earn more than 200 yuan a day when the business was in good condition. He said that the business would be better due to more and more tourists, and hoped that more people will come here during the coming National Day holidays.
