Chengdu's city walk treasure route recommendation is just too good to miss
Chengdu has so many suitable city walk routes, I just went on one last weekend, and it was really great...
-
✅ It's Fangcao Street, you might find it a bit unfamiliar, but it's right next to Yulin Road, which is the Yulin Road from the song "Chengdu".
-
🚃 Transportation: Take the subway line 8 to "Fangcao Street", and walk from exit D to reach the area around Fangcao Street and Fanghua Street.
-
🌟🌟 If you go to Yulin West Road, longing for the small taverns and Chengdu culture depicted in Zhao Lei's folk songs, then going to Fangcao Street is for the more everyday Chengdu local atmosphere.

There are many more places suitable for strolling, but due to word limit, I won't list them all, just be prepared to spend an afternoon 😂 When you're tired from walking, go to Yulin Road in the evening for skewers, hot pot🥙, go to a small tavern to listen to music, have a drink🍹

Walking to the end of Yulin Road | wondering where it actually leads
| wondering where it actually leads. The family finally figured it out🤣🤣
It turns out there is no real end to Yulin Road❗❗❗
👉🏻Today, I want to share some knowledge about Chengdu's "Yulin"
❗In fact
"Yulin" refers to a large area🚌
It includes Yulin West Road, Yulin East Road, Yulin South Road, Yulin North Road
as well as Yulin Street, Yulin Middle Road
Yulin Lane 1, Yulin Lane 4
Yulin Cross Street, Yulin Upper Cross Alley, and so on
All these streets and alleys named after "Yulin"✍🏻
belong to the Yulin neighborhood🙈
🥂Therefore, in a broader sense, Yulin refers to all the streets in the Yulin neighborhood
🎸So where exactly is the "end" that Zhao Lei sings about in "Chengdu"
"Walking to the end of Yulin Road, sitting at the entrance of a small tavern"
Where is this end located❓
Does the small tavern really exist❓
💕In fact, that famous small tavern is located on Yulin West Road✨
Not only is there a small tavern on Yulin West Road, but there are also many bars🍷
Even during the day, there is a constant stream of tourists in front of the tavern🤳
💚But the romance and artistry of Yulin
are not limited to Yulin West Road
are not limited to various bars and taverns
🧡There's also the Yulin Comprehensive Market's sausages and cured meats🍡
Fangcao Street and Fanghua Street's trendy coffee shops☕
Old Chengdu locals drinking tea and playing mahjong in various places in Yulin🍵
Egg cakes baked on the spot in food carts🍳
🍅Music, postcards, graffiti walls
🍻Taverns, coffee houses, old Chengdu
All of these elements make up today's Yulin👣
Partings always happen in September
Memories are the sorrow of longing🖤
Here, ordinary life stories unfold every day
This is the taste that truly belongs to the memory of old Chengdu🍊

FRANCES WATERS
Chengdu, or Yulin
When in Chengdu, not knowing where to go or what to eat, Yulin always comes to mind first. It's like a treasure that can never be fully explored. The worldly life and love stories of Yulin are unforgettable. If you don't want to go out and fight the crowds at this time, want to wander around Chengdu, or have friends and family who want to experience the culture and local life of Chengdu, please go to the Yulin Road Folk Music Festival.
1, Folk Music·Evening Wind Stage
2, Courtyard·Fireworks Stage: Inviting folk singers from all over the country to sing in their local dialects, such as Shaanxi dialect, Wuhan dialect, Cantonese, Yibin dialect, etc., to bring out the worldly atmosphere of folk music.
3, Yulin Street·Wandering Stage: Will invite foreign musicians in Chengdu and local singers who are good at foreign folk songs to perform.
4, Yulin Street·Poetry and Distant Stage: Inviting many ethnic minority folk musicians to sing about mountains and homesickness, poetry and romance with their voices.
The folk music map of Yulin is not limited by stage and time.
After listening to the songs, you can go to the folk music market to shop, pet cats and dogs, chat with like-minded shop owners, and when you're tired, be sure to visit a few treasure shops to revive you.
Shen Tang Sweet Water Noodles, here are the most traditional cold noodles and sweet water noodles in Chengdu. Chengdu cold noodles do not have kelp, cucumber, carrot, only a small handful of bean sprouts seasoning, just laid out in front of you.
People who have lived in Yulin, even if they have moved away from Yulin, have to come and eat two signatures, one is the nourishing health soup, and the other is handmade noodles, from early morning to 3 a.m., relying on this bowl of soup to comfort souls who come out to eat at different times.
The hangover cure shop, Guan Ji Bobo Chicken, slightly spicy and not greasy Bobo chicken, chicken soup rice warms the stomach, and then a bowl of fried rice with clear grains, the tired stomach instantly perks up.
In Yulin, locals and outsiders in Chengdu can walk the streets regardless of the season.

Cute And Cozy Café in Chengdu
Recently I discovered a new Café in Chengdu and it instantly became one of my favorites. It's close to Yulin/Fangcao area.
📍 Name and Location: 留咖啡 LIUCOFFEE
Adress: Lianyi Alley 7, 联谊巷7号
They offer coffee (I ordered the one on the first picture), and also cake, espresso and sweets. ☕ 🍰
But the best thing is not the coffee, but the super relaxing atmosphere. The decoration inside is with a lot of wood and furniture from older times. Outside is next to a river and many locals are in the area and have a tea or play Mahjong. 100% Chengdu Vibes.
💰 It's about 20RMB for a coffee.
