This is a typical market street. On Bei Qi Daojie you can find fruits, nuts, household items, hot food, and cold beer. Each market street has its own unique combination of products. My favorite market street so far offers fish, dogs, birds, rats, and reptiles. These animals are being sold as pets and as food. The selection of turtles is amazing. There are some that are so small that about 500 fit into one small tub (less than two feet in diameter) in which they swim in continuous circles to stay alive. There are some other large dinosaur-like turtles like I have never seen before. Their tails are as thick as snapping turtles' tails and their shells are spiky. There are also market streets for plants, apparell, religious goods, etc... They are very interesting!
