This trip is also part of dad's working trip, as he is there to contact his suppliers! Of course we followed! Took some trishaw-looking vehicle and it was a good experience! it was also faster than taxis as it is so compact and is able to weave in and out of traffic! in GZ, the traffic is horrendous! the ride is also quite scary as cars can just zoom SO close pass me. at one point i could touch a moving bus within an arm's length!
Reached the train station! They use these tokens as their train passes and by the end of the trip you'll just slot it in the gantry on your way out! COOL~
Reached the place and took an actual trishaw. the women there are awfully strong! they were the ones who peddled us to our destination.
The streets remind me of Singapore in the 1970s, it was as though I went back through time. People were staring at us, I guess they could tell that we weren't locals. It was really a very meaningful trip and made me realise how lucky we are to be in SG! The traffic is horrendous btw one road can have all the cars going in all different directions! Where's the order people!?
Thereafter, we left the place and took a train to the clothes distribution centre and looked around. Stuff mostly have to be bought in bulk, so we bought like 20 pairs of socks which were crazy cheap!!! stopped at this cosy little cafe for lunch! mmm i love pasta!
Look, they even had a mini clothing shop for the customers to go shopping while waiting for their food!
After that, we left the place AND traveled to another distribution centre! we totally spam on the accessories, such as hairbands, headbands, notebooks and all the funny little things! it was so tiring we left JUST before the place closed!
We also took the time to shop in the areas near our hotel as they were fucking cheap!!!! they used very funny tactics to attract customers by hanging signs saying that they have to clear all stocks as the company is bankrupt - sales revenue is used to repay debts! and they always have this sign 'Last day sales'! my dad said that their everyday is basically the 'last day' HAHHHAHAHAHA
Went to the mall nearby the hotel too, and the mall is really big and good! went to buy so much clothes! didnt take much photos as we were busy shopping! :):)
And that ends day 3. Update soon!
