Here are a few more photos from our weekly market. This is the day that farmers and collectors come to town and sell their stuff, like freshly gathered walnuts and mushrooms:
beehives and bees in a bottle:
Roasted chestnuts and seeds:
Freshly made chips, seasoned with a few cigarette ashes:
fresh goat meat:
and hundreds of other fruits and vegetables:
If you get sick, there are plenty of Traditional Chinese Medicine vendors to help you out:
You can also buy the latest fashions, dishes, toys, etc:
Here’s a tiny video clip of me entering the market (click Market Day). But to get the full effect in-person, come visit us on a Thursday!
Are the bees alive?!
The seem to be. I assume that they put a queen in the bottom of the bottle and gathered an entire colony for sale.
