How should I schedule souvenir shopping, and which day is best in Luoyang?

[Direct conclusion] 【Put it on the afternoon before departure or the morning of the last day, for three reasons: it does not eat into core sightseeing, you leave with your purchases rather than carrying them, and fresh items such as cakes and cooked foods do not spoil. Key points to keep in mind: 1. Avoid buying in the first days and lugging it around.】 Suggested timing: Buy too early and it is a burden; too late and you rush for the flight—timing matters. 2. | When | Verdict | |---|---| | Afternoon before return | best | | Last morning | second choice | | Early in the trip | not advised | | Inside scenic areas | pricier | ◆ Tip: ship fragile and chilled items; we can help pack and post. 3. We sign formal contracts and issue proper receipts with full after-sales support; call for consultation and booking. Note: With kids or elderly travelers, a slower pace beats more sightseeing spots.
