A feature of such long-standing localities has been the food markets where countryside almost spreads into urban zones. I come from a large Scottish metropolis, Glasgow, where most of my daily or weekly shopping was conducted at large supermarkets. Yes, I would push a trolley laden with microwaveable meals! However, I have found in China that the market can be so colorful. Walking through vegetable sections there is an aroma of freshness from daily delivered harvests. At times I was unfamiliar with the varieties and again a certain amusement from stallholders as I would try to photograph the crops. There was bustle, particularly early morning, but not the pushing through aisles found in today's large supermarkets.
