Wangfujing Department Store — Local services in Chengdu

I originally came after seeing all the posts on Dianping about 90%-off clothing, but when I arrived, there was no sign of those giant bargain halls—just a fairly traditional department store! The merchandise also leaned noticeably toward older demographics.

Although the mall is newly renovated, the displays and layout still give off strong 1990s retro vibes. There were almost more staff than customers in the entire building.
