Whether you have eclectic tastes, favour antiquities or simply like to browse in clothes shops, a day spent shopping in Tianjin is a day to remember. For one of the most colourful shopping experiences on offer in Tianjin, head to the Antiques Market at the corner of Shandong Lu and Jinzhou Dao, where many street vendors simply display their goods on blankets around the many narrow back streets. Similar sights await along the Ancient Culture Street, which is known locally as Guwènhuà, and also at Tianjin's Confucius Temple Antiques Market on Dongmennei Dajie.

Tianjin Shopping: Where to Shop - Tianjin, China, CN
Two particularly notable shopping streets in central Tianjin are Heping Lu and Binjiang Dao. These bustling thoroughfares are lined with shopping opportunities, interspersed with eateries and other attractions. Further shops are concentrated in this region of Tianjin and stand along the many intersecting streets and alleys. Located on the southern end of the Binjiang Dao Street you will find both the highly acclaimed Isetan department store and a huge clothing market, comprising in excess of 100 different market stalls and plenty of hot snacks.

Further shopping opportunities in Tianjin present themselves around Xiaobai Lóu, which is close to Qufu Lu and is home to a number of brand-name stores and also the Foreign Goods Market, where second-hand clothing and vintage fashion accessories await. Those simply looking to stock up on food will find five different branches of the French supermarket Carrefour spread around the city, including outlets on both Baita Lu and Dongma Lu, where you will also fine the New World Shopping Centre.

Two of the main departments stores in Tianjin are as follows:
