Photo and Description

Qingping Market is one of the first "free markets" generated by the economic policies of Deng Xiaoping, where peasants could sell their products. This is one of the most important and controversial sights of Guangzhou.

Here tourists choose an animal they like, buy it, kill it themselves or give it to the cook, prepare food from it and eat it right there. Near the entrance is the usual collection of medicinal herbs, spices, dried scorpions, snakes, skins of leopards and tigers, poisonous mushrooms, and bark of various tree species. Then there are live animals: monkeys, turtles, owls and pigeons, aquariums with fish, frogs, toads and salamanders, anteaters, dogs and raccoons.
