Description	Today, we take a cross border coach to Da Fen Village, the world’s largest oil painting village in Shenzhen. This 4 sq km area comprises 60% of the world oil painting market. It has more than 800 stores and 5,000+ artists. Choose a new piece of art from a huge selection of paintings in oil, water color, embroidery, and more, or bring a favorite photo to be copied into a hand-painted work of art. Art supplies can be purchased at unbelievably low prices. Our coach provides storage space to bring your purchases back, but we need to limit the size to one piece of airline check-in luggage per person. Purchases need to be taken off the bus when going through immigration. We will spend 4 to 5 hours in the village. Lunch will be on your own. There is a Wal-Mart nearby with fast-food facilities, and exploring the Chinese version of this megastore is an interesting tour in itself. Hong Kong I.D., passport with 6 months validity and a valid China visa are required for this activity. For more information, see http://www.cndafen.com/enindex.asp.
