New sunny day begins in poor Chinese remote district. Different noises and smells fill the whole marker, where new dawn arises. These territories are not reachable for tourist routes; however, it does not mean that life is quiet here. Perhaps, their tempo of life may seem allegedly repetitious for person from Western culture, nevertheless its authenticity deserves to be respected and highly valued. Their strict following to traditions and unique lifestyle are not archaic, as it may seem at first glance, aren’t they? Specific Eastern culture is vividly represented in the concept of this market, where their own norms and rules are reflected in their behavior.
This Chinese market embodies an eternal rush of our lives and never-ending struggle for welfare. People are laughing, trying to conclude as beneficiary and advantageous deals as possible, attempting to find own happiness despite all hardshipsFor an alien eye all their faces may seem rather similar, we do not see remarkable differences between two women in the same clothes or several men wearing the same traditional hats. However, under seemingly the same facial features different personalities are hidden. There are not two people with the same story, even now, acting in a rather similar way every of them has unique feelings and desires, dreams and fears Every couple of eyes encodes the current situation in own way, emphasizing totally different moments. Therefore, such picture resembles a micro scheme of the whole world with its diversity and uniqueness, where each person represents a separate ocean of thoughts and ideas. Moreover, it is like a metaphor of unpredictable human life, where we face hundreds of other people with various life stories, whereas in different situations each of us acts as either buyer or seller.
