Dashang Xinmate Luohe (大商新玛特漯河店)

Dashang Xinmate Luohe (大商新玛特漯河店) is a long-established department store at the junction of Jiaotong Road and Binhe Road in Yuanhui District, Luohe, in China's Henan Province. Part of the Dashang Xinmate chain, it anchors the old-town retail area and lists about 174 tenants. Its published trading hours are 09:30 to 21:00. The format is a traditional multi-floor department store, where counters from different brands are grouped by category rather than a mall of independent shopfronts.

The store is known for cosmetics, fashion and a children's section, which together make up the core of what it sells. Ground-floor space typically holds cosmetics and accessories, with clothing for women, men and children on upper floors. Brands are a mix of domestic labels and mid-market names, and as counters are run by the brands or authorised distributors, the risk of replica goods is low compared with street markets. The range is aimed at local residents rather than tourists, so there are no souvenir trinkets, but visitors needing everyday clothing, skincare or children's items will find it practical.

Prices are fixed and displayed. Bargaining is not customary in a department store, although seasonal sales, festival promotions and member points are frequent and sales staff can explain current offers. Payment is mainly by WeChat Pay, Alipay and UnionPay card, and cash is accepted at the counters; international cards may not work at every counter. Tax-refund arrangements for foreign visitors are not generally associated with this store, and shoppers who want one should ask at the customer service desk.

The atmosphere is orderly and local, with the heaviest foot traffic on weekends, holidays and evenings. Food options in this kind of store are usually limited to a restaurant or snack area on an upper floor or nearby, and visitors should not expect a large international food court. Its old-town location places it close to other central shopping streets, so it combines easily with a wider walk around Yuanhui District's older commercial area.
