Qingping Medicine Market
What the experts agree on
Qingping's chaotic sensory overload—dried seahorses, ginseng, mystery fungi—makes it authentically fascinating and occasionally unsettling. Busy, aromatic, and packed with traditional Chinese medicine ingredients you won't find elsewhere.
“A fantastic assortment of China's finest and most disturbing wares. ”
