Here’s another batch of supermarket and liquor photos.
Fruit
There was a lot of fruit that looked delicious.
Liquor
By now I can roughly get a feel for a shop just by looking at the lineup.
Liquor like this
These are the good-value bottles. Bainian Hutu isn’t hard to find in Korea either.
Eating breakfast
The street stalls only come out in the morning and pack up once they sell out. It made me think everyone here works hard for a living.
Old buildings
Ducheng Changfen King, Yunfu Yunan-style
I snapped this while walking past.
Liquor
I think this was my first time seeing something like Kouzi Jiao, but there was a place selling it. There are a few bottles I’m curious about, but going to China doesn’t mean you can just pick them up..
Fruit
They even have Shine Muscat. Instead of my usual supermarket, I tried one a bit farther away.
Bananas
Butcher counter
Liquor
Luzhou Laojiao Touqu and so on..
They have Jinliufu too.
The good-value bottles are sold right out in the open like this. The expensive ones go in a glass case..
Roughly this kind of liquor
You get a rough idea of what tier they’re in, I guess.
Good-value liquor
Cheap.
Liquor
There really is an enormous variety of liquor.
All kinds of liquor
They have Dukang too.
Liquor
Apartment blocks
Liquor shop
They sell Xijiu, Jiannanchun, all sorts. There are so many kinds of baijiu that every supermarket inevitably stocks something a little different, so it seems you have to walk around a fair bit to find the bottle you want.
The schedule was so packed that the only way to get any free time was to get up early and walk around. So I figured I’d at least leave plenty of records and took photos like crazy.. If I’m going to wander around like this, I feel like megapixel count matters, but who knows when Apple will ever bump up the iPhone’s resolution..
