Question:
Which are the suitable places for me to buy some antique
imitations with Chinese characteristics?

¡¡¡¡Dongtai Road Antique Market

dealing with worn artworks, including porcelain, jade,
bronze ware, woodenware, calligraphy and paintings, the
¡°Four Treasures of the Studio¡± (writing-brush, paper,
