How to Survive the 7km Walk.
Cheat codes for a better trip.
🚌 Free Shuttle Bus
Electric bus circles Districts 1-5 every 15 mins. Look for "Market Bus" signs.
🚕 Taxi Gates
Don't say "Futian". Say the Gate Number (e.g., District 1 is Gate 4).
📶 Wi-Fi
"i-Yiwu" is free but needs a Chinese phone number for SMS verification.
🍱 Food
Huge canteens on the 4th floor. District 4/5 has best Western food options.

Where can I find a map of the Yiwu Market?
Download our English Yiwu market map PDF below — one page per district (1–6), floor by floor, with gate numbers and the shuttle loop. The official Chinese map is on the operator's Yiwugo app; Google Maps only shows the buildings, not the floors, which is why buyers need a floor-plan PDF.
