Jade is the most beloved gemstone among the Chinese people, and it plays a significant role in Chinese culture. In ancient China, people often wore jade around their waists, and even the seals of kings were made of jade. Today, many jades are carved into Buddha statues, pendants, cell phone charms, and other items, which are carried on the body for protection, becoming the favorite of many people.
Around the Guanghua commercial area, there have long been many merchants and street vendors selling jade and antiques. Due to the large number of them, it has gradually become a jade trading area, forming the Guanghua Jade Market. It is a popular jade market in Taipei City, apart from the Jian Guo Holiday Jade Market.
