The name says it all, and it lives up to it’s name! Womens World at Huaqiangbei is a five floor mall just for women, covering just about all of a womens needs, so yes, it has loads and loads of girly stuff. Here you can find clothes, accessories, beauty parlors, cosmetics, jewellery and much more.

Being at Huaqiangbei means the men can run off and look to a nearby mall and look at electronic gadgets while you cruze the jam packed, independently operated stalls. At a rough count there’s over 300 stores spread across the five floors.

The first floor has a real chaotic market feel to it with stock just bulging from the stalls in which the staff stand elevated in the middle, looking down onto their wares and dealing with the hundreds of people that can be squeezing their way through the narrow isles.

To avoid the crowds, it’s best to go early, and on a weekday if possible. I believe like most malls it opens at 10 a.m. and closes late. As for pricing, some items may be on sale with as marked prices, but don’t be afraid to haggle, and don’t be afraid to peruse the multitude of stalls, checking prices, style and quality before returning to a selected stall to enter into the price negotiation.

What can you get there: fashion, beauty care products, make up, jewellery,under garments, jeans, dresses, shirts, accessories etc. etc.

Price: Low to Mid, haggle your way to a great deal.
