Sanzhou Market – Shende's Wildest! Exotic Foods (Crocodile, Bamboo Rat) + Lingnan Vibes

Hey friends! It’s Lydia here! Today, we’re skipping the kitchen and the recipe—let’s explore Sanzhou Market, a local favorite in Lunjiao, Shunde, Guangdong, and soak up that rich Lingnan street vibe～
The market’s biggest highlight is its Sunday fair, which dates back to the 1970s! Every Sunday morning, over 500 open-air stalls line the streets, bustling with energy until around noon when they gradually pack up— the atmosphere is absolutely electric～
The ingredients here are simply endless! There are all the usual fresh fruits, vegetables, pork, beef, lamb, and seafood. But what’s really exciting are the exotic picks like crocodile meat, bamboo rat, river worms, and water striders. Plus, local specialties like Jun’an steamed pork, Shunde fish skin, freshly steamed Lunjiao rice cake, and creamy fried milk—every bite is irresistible～
Beyond food, the market also has fresh flowers, potted plants, birds, fish, and insects. It’s even a major turtle trading hub for the Guangzhou-Foshan area! The pet section has cute puppies, kittens, rabbits, and more. You’ll also find second-hand antiques, fruit seedlings, Chinese herbal medicines, hand-woven rattan baskets, and even vintage wood carvings—you could spend the whole day browsing and never get bored～
Enough talking—let’s dive right in with my camera and discover all the surprises hidden here.
