Move over, the Bund – there’s a new hotspot stitching up attention in Shanghai! The South Bund Soft Spinning Material Market, once a local secret, has skyrocketed to #2 on TripAdvisor’s foreign tourist must-visit list this year, proving that custom fashion is the ultimate travel souvenir. 🧳
With over 200 stalls offering tailor-made suits and shirts (starting at just $150!), this market lets travelers design their dream wardrobe in 72 hours. "I got a bespoke wool suit faster than my Amazon Prime delivery," laughed Marco, a tourist from Italy. 🕺
The boom comes as China’s relaxed visa-free policies make last-minute shopping sprees possible – over 50% of clients now hail from abroad. Pro tip: Pair your fitting session with nearby Yuyuan Garden visits for the ultimate ‘East meets West’ day. 🌸👔
