Also the flower markets around town will sell fake and real trees. Not sure if the Beijing Tree Company plans to sell trees this year via Villa Lifestyles, but maybe you can give them a call for a real tree.

Other places with decorations on sale a bit closer to Christmas: Ikea, Hola, and even Carrefour and Lotus.

Ikea has fake medium sized trees (4 or 5 feet tall) for 249 RMB. Anyone else got prices?
They also have a bunch of decorations.

There's a few places there. Go thru the main gate where the large Chinese gate is and go down to taxi stand where Starbucks is. Go down the street to the right of Starbucks and on the left you will see a 6 storey building with tons of decorations outside and inside. Go down to the basement and work your way up. There's another one on Hen Nan Nan Rd near Fuxing Rd.

At the fish and flower market at 718 Hongjing Lu near Hong Song Lu they have a lot of stores with Christmas decoration and trees. They will even have a Christmas market soon, but I forgot the exact date. Might want to ckeck that out.

I got a real 5 feet tree 2 years ago for RMB120. I'm sure it's much more now but pretty sure it was cheaper than a fake one back then. Will check out the Long Yang Station flower market for Christmas Trees. Anyone has been there already? Do they have any?

Carrefour have got loads of decorations for sale at moment, though tad pricey for what they are. No real trees as far as I could see today
