stores are usually souvenir shops and gifts, are closed when tourists do not come, they close around 22-23 o'clock

Hi Lew, There are many Dim Sum in Yuyuan, mainly streetfood and in some of them you can be seated. Ding tai fung is a good place to go :). Just keep in mind that yuyuan is a touristic place so it tends to be a bit more expensive than other places.

no at all I went there last year in February twice and at June twice as will its free day or night if you want to go for shopping go at the period from 8:00AM to 7:00 PM if you want to go for just hanging out go at night its stunning at night but no shopping except restaurants, groceries and coffee shops like Star bucks. that for the Yuyuan bazaar if you meant Yuyuan garden beside the bazaar I have no clue I have nevere been to this garden
