Hi guys!
I will purchase a Kwan Dao (關刀) in China, but I just have the address in chinese.
Looking in the site that sells it, they just give me a bunch of options for the delivery that I cannot be sure if is correct.
Can someone please help me with this?

The adress I have is this:
北京市,西城区,广安门外,手帕口南街,朗琴元,5号楼4单元502号。

In the site I imagine that will be sonthing like this:
Beijing, Beijing, Xicheng District, guang an men wai jie dao, 手帕口南街,朗琴元,5号楼4单元502号

Is that correct?

It would be best if you post a link. 

 

Is a Kwan Dao a martial arts knife?

Are you in China? Is that your address? If you are in China buying something from a Chinese company, just give them the Chinese address in characters.

If you are not in China and hope to receive something from that company, what exactly do you need the address for?

 

But here is the address in English, in case that is what you need:

北京市,西城区,广安门外,手帕口南街,朗琴元,5号楼4单元502号

Room 502, Unit 4, Building 5

Langqinyuan

Shoupakou Nanjie [This is a street name, I would expect a house number here as well]

Guang'anmen wai [I'm pretty sure you can leave this out if you put it on a parcel or letter. It's just the name of the general neighbourhood.]

Xicheng District

Beijing

PR China

The fact is that a friend will be in China, and I will send him the package. Thats why i need to understand this address.
The site (everythingwushu.com) askme for a region wen I need to chose bethen a lot of options. Otherwise I will just cut and paste the Chinese address I alredy have.
I think Langqinyuan is a well known place. That's Why a house number is not necessary.
But I think I got it.
Thanks.

A Kwan Dao is something like a Halberd.

That is probably the safest option. Include your friend's phone number as well, if you have it (and friend is ok with it). That way, the delivery person can call your friend if they can't find the place (or are running late, or whatever).
