    Not sure where is best to post this..

    Anyway i remember years ago you could find Chinese or Japanese pictures etc all over the place. Could not find any.. anywhere i looked.

    Just back from the US and there was a store called "world market" where i got loads of stuff for the house. Is there anywhere like that here?

    Its strange, you can get LOADS of african stuff here even indian stuff. With all the Asian food stores i would have thought decorations would be easy to find.

    in case anyone is wondering i did find a shop in the ilac centre, across from the dunnes food/bargain shop. I got a lovely Chinese clock there.

    All around moore street would be your best bet.

    The best places for ethnic ornaments ets tends to be most of the small streets around the city, temple bar, powerscourt centre, georges mall, stephens green centre. Been a since I've looked around them so i can't give you specifics unfortunately, but would be worth taking half a day to walk around the city centre.

    Pagoda in Dun Laoghaire shopping centre, sells all sorts of oriental malarky.
