Okay so the new rule, once you run out of the ability to hold your own purchases the shopping trip is over.

Embarrassingly enough yup that's all mine! Thanks Thomas.

There is this really cool street on the outskirts of town, Yangjiabu or for those of us who still can’t grasp Chinese names, Kite Street. There are tons of family kite shops and print workshops. Some of the kites are even painted by hand which are beautiful to look at.

At the end there is the Yangjiabu Folk Grand Viewing Garden (direct translation I suppose). Supposedly some of the structures date back to the Ming Dynasty. The Print Shop and the Kite workshop was a treat to go through.

I’m still discovering Weifang and I love it! This town has character once you seek it out. I’m excited to really delve in this next year and make the most of my familiar surroundings.
