Hong kong is a globally acknowledged " shopping paradise" in terms of shopping options and atmosphere while prices are also very high so it's may not a good place for you. Despite their modern facade, Beijing and Shanghai have many flea, open-air traditional markets where you can purchase a great variety of souvenirs at a very cheap price if you are good at haggling. The Xiushuijie street, liulichang street and Panjiayuan market are heavily frequented by foreign travelers. The Yuyuan Bazaar and Curio Street at Dongtai Road are good places to get gifts in Shanghai. If you have enough time, you can even consider a trip to Xinjiang in northwest China where you will find abundant local items at the unbelivable cheap price.
