Business is strong ahead of the Spring Festival at a century-old fair in the suburbs of Linfen, a city in northern China's Shanxi Province. The market is known as "Qiaoli Fair," and is home to 500 stores and 2,000 vendor booths. The fair sells a wide variety of goods for people to celebrate the Chinese New Year. Local officials say the Spring Festival fair lasts for a month every year, and often attracts tens of thousands of visitors a day.
