Dounan Flower Market after 8:30 pm, when the wholesale trading starts
Dounan, Chenggong District, Kunming
Dounan is Asia's biggest cut-flower market, and by day it's mostly a retail hall for visitors. It really comes alive at night: from about 8:30 pm until around 2 am the wholesale session runs, and traders move roses, lilies and sunflowers by the armful. You don't need to be a florist to buy, since flowers are sold by the bunch, and a bunch of roses or sunflowers costs about ¥10.
