What is the best gift to buy for a trip to Macau?

Of course, shopping in Macau also has certain skills. Let me introduce them to you.

Specialty shops in Macao

The charm of shopping in Macao is irresistible, because the low tax rate policy, geographical conditions and low consumption level have created a shopping environment in Macao that is cheap and full of surprises. There are not only many kinds of goods here, but also the prices are cheaper than those in neighboring areas. Jewelry (especially gold ornaments), brand-name clothing, antiques, porcelain, wine, electronic products, mobile phones, watches, sweaters and silk fabrics are all available.

Export manufacturing is one of the important industries in Macao, so there are a lot of cheap goods for sale, which not only increases the fun of shopping, but also saves a lot of money. The more popular and competitive commodities in the market are jewelry, clothing, toys, antiques, antique furniture and electronic products. In most unmarked shops, customers can usually get a discount if they ask for it. Bargaining is common in most small shops. Clothing-factory direct sales, cheap resale-cheap sales of famous brands There are more than 500 garment factories in Macao, and their products are mainly sold to Europe, the United States and Australia. The main products are jeans, children's wear and sportswear. In the shop marked "ready-made clothes for export", you can buy clothes with good quality and low price. Many clothes sold in cheap clothing stores can't be tried on, so you should choose the right size carefully when buying, because the clothes sold in these stores can't be returned.

Nowadays, Chinese clothing, whether casual or formal, is very popular. You can buy Chinese clothes with different fabrics and different prices at the camp market near the Civil Affairs Department and the clothing store or stall near the Sanduang District near the Red Market.

If you want to buy the works of local fashion designers, you can go to the Macao designer conference at No.8 C of Baimahang. Several brands of Macao fashion designers are gathered here. The clothes they designed have participated in fashion design competitions at home and abroad, and some even won prizes. The fashion here is fashionable, different and not expensive at all.

Furniture and Antiques-Genuine or Imitation?

There are many shops selling real antiques and exquisite imitations in the downtown areas around the Macao Peninsula and the roads. Most of these shops are concentrated in Dasanba Street, Caodui Street, Huawangtang Street, Guanqian Main Street and Guo Lan Street from the front of the museum to Dasanba. Many antique furniture comes from China and has been renovated. In addition, there are antique new furniture made of high-quality wood. Most stores have freight service, which can transport goods to all parts of the world at reasonable prices. Besides furniture, antiques can also be found in antique shops around here.

Another open-air market is near Honggong Temple. 10 is located between Fifth Street and Haibin New Street in early October. This area is the center of the old market. Please prepare a map, because this area is hard to find, but it is well worth spending some time around.

In addition, the famous night market is Lianxi Market next to Yongle Theater. In front of Lianxi Temple and Xinyi Stadium, there are booths and game booths at night, and there are Cantonese opera singing, lion dance performance, fortune telling and karaoke on the spot, which is quite lively.

The best shopping area-in front of the exhibition hall and around Red Square.

The front of the pavilion is the historic Macau Center. There is one of the most modern municipal markets in Macao nearby, and there are many hawker stalls around. Xinma Road used to be the main shopping street in Macau. There are shops selling all kinds of cheap goods and various Chinese and foreign snack bars in the small street in front of the discussion booth. One of the main commodities sold here is clothing.

In this block, there are also the "Cinda City" (director Peter Street) of Baimahang and the "Patek" shopping mall selling Lawns, which also sells all kinds of goods: clothes, watches and fashion accessories.

On the other side of the new road, there is also a shopping area. This place is more suitable for adventurous shoppers. Go along Doctor Suali Street next to the Civil Affairs Department to Long Fu New Street, and then turn right. There are two rows of restored Chinese buildings built in19th century. This used to be a red light district, but now there are many restaurants and shops selling snacks.

Red Square is located at the junction of Latitu Avenue and Costa Avenue, where there are some buildings with 20th century architectural features. The Red Market was built by Portuguese local Julio Alberto barstow in 1936. Its architecture belongs to the Art Deco style and has been listed as the architectural heritage of Macao. Nowadays, the market is busy with business activities, and vendors sell all kinds of dry goods, fresh goods, fish and meat. In the past, because the market was near the sea, vendors directly purchased goods from nearby docks. Now all kinds of fresh fish and aquatic products are delivered twice a day. In addition, the market also sells poultry, various vegetables, flowers, fruits and other commodities.

Costco Avenue is a shopping street, starting from Red Market and ending at Erlonghou Garden at the foot of Songshan Mountain. There are several boutiques selling fashion, shoes, electronic products and cameras. You can buy cheap goods in the small streets on both sides of Costco Avenue. Sandeng District Sandeng District has a long history. There are all kinds of small shops and stalls. There are many kinds of goods and the prices are quite cheap.

The shopping area extends along the crow's nest, covering several nearby streets, and most of the shops are concentrated in Belize Street. Portuguese wine-high quality and reasonable price

Speaking of Portuguese wine, its mellow taste and taste secret can be written into several books. However, if you want to know something about wine before buying it, learn to distinguish wines from different producing areas and taste high-quality Porto liqueur, you only need to visit the wine museum located in the tourism activity center. All supermarkets and even small shops in Australia sell wine. The price of wine varies, from ordinary table wine worth MOP 30 to Porto high-quality aged wine worth hundreds of MOP.

You can buy different grades of gold ornaments in Macao, because they are tax-free, so the prices are reasonable. There are also a large number of pearls and semi-precious stones (crystal, aquamarine, turquoise, etc. ) for sale. The choice of goods depends on your bid. There are also many street vendors selling new and old jade, pearls and other semi-precious stones. You can't buy real jewelry in buses, turnstiles and souvenir stands near Bishop Hill. If you want to buy expensive jewelry, please go to a reputable store.

There are many reputable jewelry stores near the Lisboa Hotel, Xinma Road and Costa Avenue. When buying high-priced goods, I suggest you visit several stores and compare the prices. Please don't forget to ask for the warranty card and keep the receipt.
