Q: Which is the best Beijing market for furniture?

I need to get some furniture for my flat - sofa, chairs and table. I really don't want to buy generic stuff from IKEA. Can anyone recommend a good market for these things. Don't need anything too fancy, just comfy.

 

Also if you buy stuff like this do you need to rent a van before you go or are they waiting at the market to assist you?

 

Thanks.

Beijing's furniture markets are generally located on the outskirts of the city and are hard to reach without a car. For this reason I would recommend sticking to IKEA or even going online. I know people who've bought their furniture and household needs on taobao, ganji.com and 58.com.

There's a furniture street somewhere near Gaobeidian station - it's a 5minute walk from the station. There's a massive furniture store that has 'antique' furniture in lots of styles - in particular Chinese. It's all very nice stuff. The main store in the street is called 'Lilly's' or 'Lillies'. But there are plenty of other shops nearby. Lilly's also does delivery.

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
