At 6 AM they start shouting, yelling and selling the fresh catch.By an hour end almost all stuff is sold out.This whole show was very Chinese old style vendors selling and costumers equally loud and excited to bargain for deals.

Was great to watch this show.
The fishes , vegetables were fresh and mostly home grown,so naturally organic.

Very good staff service in helping us check-in, order macdonalds (Vicky Yang) on our behalf, and helping us with luggage queries with Air China. Front counter however can be more proactive as i am left standing there for a few mins b4 i approach them.

Holiday Inn was in probably the best location. Zhongyang Pedestrian Street is right in front of Holiday Inn and St Sophia's Square and Zhaolin Park (Lantern Festival) are easy, quick and safe walks from the Hotel. The staff were all very helpful.

I love the cold, and they have some great sausages. Don't miss the Ice and Snow World.
