Farmers' Market in Beibei

A large farmer's market occurs in Beibei on Saturdays.

The food! Ripe green tangerines, Asian pears, onions, mushrooms, cabbage, meat. Cooked ducks hang with their necks twisted back, basted to a brown lacquer. Turtles and pigeons for sale. It is a magic moment, just walking through and watching the faces of the sellers and buyers. (Connie)
