From the towering Karakoram mountains in the north to the shores of the Arabian Sea in the south, join CGTN's Danial Khan on a 12-part journey across Pakistan, following the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). The series explores the infrastructure, industries and communities at the heart of Pakistan's development and the country's growing ties with China.

In this episode, Danial hits the streets of Lahore to see how Chinese products have become staples of everyday life. He visits Shah Alam Market, one of the country’s largest wholesale hubs, and Hafeez Center, a major destination for mobile phones and accessories. He talks to traders and shoppers about the popularity of Chinese goods and how they've shaped the market. He also visits a popular Chinese lifestyle brand and a furniture and home décor store to see how Chinese brands are tailoring their products and services for Pakistani consumers. 

It's a fascinating look at how the two countries' partnership extends beyond major infrastructure to everyday items people buy, use and rely on.
