"Before returning to Hong Kong for the Chinese New Year, I plan to buy New Year goods with good price and quality on Yide Road in Guangzhou," said Sze Kam-lung, a Hong Kong resident who has worked in the Chinese mainland for many years.
As the Chinese New Year draws nearer, the flower markets in Guangdong are gradually bustling. Shaoguan's Wengyuan County, the largest Chinese orchid production base in China, also ushers in the peak sales season. Pots of exquisite orchids depart from here and are shipped all over the world.
