On May 27, we saw in the Tourism Shopping Center in the 2nd District, Yiwu International Trade Mart that it was crowded of tourists from Shanghai, Jiangsu and Fujian, mostly from Shanghai Expo.

Since the 2010 Shanghai World Expo was opened, more and more tourists rush into Shanghai, which also booms the shopping tourism of Yiwu wholesale market. Currently, there are averagely over 50 tourist groups come toYiwu market everyday. The tourists from Shanghai increases by at least 30%.
