Have you noticed the special sight in Huangshan, the locks chain on the mountain. The lovers always bought a lock from the local vendors and lock it on the chain, then threw away the key so that it is lock for over, meaning your love would be locked for ever. Although it's just a beautiful fame and nice belief, it's no harm to belive it so just make a good wish. :-)

The jade market in Shanghai is an excellent place to explore. I bought lots of presents here for my family and friends at very low price. They all loved them very much. Once have a chance to visit Shanghai, have a stroll there. Maybe you could harvest some incredible stuff! PS: Do remember to bargain with the venders!!
