Souvenirs

Well, i don't live in a tourists area but, when i go places to visit, i like sweatshirts as souvenirs. also, this is a weird one but, i collect elephants so if i find something unique with an elephant to show where its from i will get that too.

From the Isle of Wight containers with colored sand are popular from an area known as The Needles. Where I live is the South West and fudge in a box with a postcard of a west country cottage is popular. They have costume dolls from England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland. Postcards are low cost and most tourists likes to buy them. I have a collection of costume dolls from around the world. In Jordan I got a couple of mini jugs filled with colored sand from Petra. I have got model houses and one is a Swiss chalet musical one. I like the English teapot cottage and the Kent oast house. I have got a large wooden giraffe from Kenya.

Hi Posrcoapino . People usually go to Bandung usually for eating and shoping. We are famous for independent distro, sell clothing you will not find else were.

I live in a beach area, so, our souvenirs are mostly clothes related to the beach. I live in an island with more than 30 beaches, so, every beach have different designs of bikinis, shirts and much more.

Tourists buy ceramics that have the name of the place, or a ceramic with something charactaristic of the place. Everywhere you go you will find the same magnets with different names. Even in Prague, it was the same. Of course there are some items like traditional flutes or other stuff used by locals. It depends on the place. If you go to an island you will find items used by fishermen. If you go to the mountains you will find items used by locals, sheperds etc.

i think tourists will buy something interesting and special as souvenirs. you don't need to think what you should buy, just buy something you think is really interesting. my area ia famous for special type of souvenirs. if you go to yunnan, you could buy some aeolian bells. there are a lot of interesting aeolian bells in yunnan and you will love it.

I live close to London, and there are sooooo many souvenirs that can be bought. Union Jack t-shirts, Big Ben, anything that has a London landmark on it, from pens, to mugs, clothes, hats, you name it! We have Art Galleries too which are famous. Oxford Street has loads of tourist shops. Postcards are probably the most popular, to be sent home to friends and relatives or as a keepsake. Some people like to go to the popular shops like Harrods and Selfridges and carry out the bags. When I go to other countries I used to collect souvenirs but I got sooo many that I ended up giving them away. I think the best thing is postcards because they don't take up so much room in your luggage when you travel back home!

My town is a tourist spot area and mostly the souvenir shops here sells personalized key chains, wallets, T-shirt and etc. The one myLotter that visited me here they got personalized T-shirt with their names on it.
