Lost in Fangyuanli
So, I finally made it to Fangyuanli ID MALL in @Beijing, right? Spent hours wandering – it's HUGE. Found some amazing little shops tucked away, selling things you wouldn't find anywhere else. But th… more
Yeah, Fangyuanli ID MALL is a beast! I felt like I was in a real-life video game, constantly bumping into stuff. My best advice? Pay attention to the signage, even if it's mostly in Chinese. Seriously, look UP. There are often directional signs on the upper levels that your phone's map might miss. And download a different map app before your next trip - maybe one specifically designed for China? Also, don't be afraid to ask for directions. Most people are really helpful, even if there's a language barrier. You might be surprised how far a smile and some pointing goes! Good luck with those dumplings!

Or maybe the owner just likes to be super extra mysterious. I'd be way too scared to open that box, too. Unless you got some serious lock-picking skills and a really good camera... then maybe? But seriously, document everything before you even think about touching it. You never know what kind of cursed artifact might be inside. Maybe someone else has a less... unsettling story about their stay, but I doubt it.
