💐Tips for buying flowers:
🌸We recommend going in the afternoon from 4-5pm or at night. After 8:30 pm, it is the best time for face-to-face trading for fresh cut flowers, and you can find the widest variety, freshest flowers✅, busiest atmosphere, and even cheaper prices as the night goes on;
🌸Remember to look around first, compare products from multiple vendors, and note that flowers in the main hall are fresher than those sold on the sidewalk. Pro tip: bring a small notebook to note prices, it will make bargaining easier 💰;
🌸When choosing flowers, look for ones with uniform fresh and bright colors. Try shaking the flower head gently to see if the petals are falling off. Choose fresh cut flowers with thick, long stem and clean cut at the bottom;
🌸Choose flowers that have slightly opened but not bloomed all the way, so that they will bloom perfectly when you get them home🌼🌻;
🌸Don't make impulsive buys, or you'll get tired of carrying them around🌺;
🌸If you're not a wholesaler, don't worry about trying to find the cheapest deals. The prices of common flowers at Dounan Flower Market do not differ much from each other.
🌸If you have luggage and want to keep it safe, you can go to the Tourist Service Center on the 2nd floor of Building 8;
🌸To navigate to Dounan Flower Market, search for "Dounan Flower & Bird Market" or "Jinguifu Station Exit B" instead of "Dounan Flower Market". Otherwise, you will have to walk nearly 1 kilometer from Dounan Station.
🌸Before buying anything, take your time to look around and decide what you like. Only then should you bargain to get the best deal for yourself!
