Pishi Street

Certain parts of Yangzhou can have a feeling of a less developed and more honest version of Suzhou. Pishi street is a great example of this less gentrified version of Suzhou. The street is buzzing with bookshops, restaurants, and coffee shops. Most of which are very recent additions and you can see lots of building as more establishments join the street. There are some fantastic book shops where you can buy interesting Chinese books and buy cute souvenirs of the street. There are also many restaurants which are reasonably priced and there is not a chain in sight. The street itself is busy as cars and e-bikes are still allowed to drive down the street. Take care when walking and taking photos of cute shop fronts. The street itself takes around an hour to explore properly on both sides. Pishi street translates to leather market street indicating what the street once was. There are lots of interesting streets and alleys like this to explore in Yangzhou. Yangzhou has lots of history and with the addition of the new fast train line direct to Shanghai I can’t help feeling Yangzhou will look very different in 20 year’s time as tourism continues to develop.

"Attractions Guide" Xiaojie Street At the end of the alley, you can check in at the "Siwang Pavilion" building, where the short alley encapsulates the ordinary life of the locals. Dongguan Street A very representative historical old street in Yangzhou, with lanterns hanging from the eaves of old buildings along the road, full of New Year's atmosphere, it is a great place for a city stroll. Ge Garden I personally think it's more worth visiting than He Garden~ The exquisite garden and rockery are very typical of Chinese elegance. Pishi Street There are many interesting creative shops, as well as a big "Yangzhou" sign, which is very suitable for taking photos. Er Fen Ming Yue Lou A free garden hidden in the alley, not very big and with few people, but still encapsulates the poetic and picturesque charm of the gardens in the south of the Yangtze River. Grand Canal Museum No ticket is required, but you need to make a reservation in advance. "About Accommodation" This time I came to Yangzhou to better experience the market life of this small town, so I deliberately stayed at the reconstructed Bingyuan Pavilion Cultural Resort Hotel on Dongguan Street~ In a century-old salt merchant's residence, through the understanding of the aesthetics of life, it has been upgraded and transformed, but you can feel a different kind of relaxation and tranquility. Sitting in the tea room in the garden landscape and chatting and tasting tea in the afternoon really feels like the right way to open a trip to Yangzhou!

Yangzhou Pishi Street really amazed me! I've been to many ancient towns and seen a lot of cultural and creative shops, but I think Yangzhou Pishi Street is one of the best. Especially the cultural and creative products in 'The Record of the Fleeting Life', like the Yangzhou Pineapple (borrowing from Marco Polo) and Yangzhou Skinny 🐯 (social who?), are really clever. The Biancheng Bookstore not only has creative designs but also ancient book restoration, which I haven't encountered since graduating from college. Hidden here, the craftsmen focus on restoring the old as it was, giving it new life, which is truly commendable. If Yangzhou as a whole feels like the 1990s, reminiscent of the city we lived in during our youth, Pishi Street brings the vibe of the younger generation's lifestyle. Beyond the everyday hustle and bustle, they also demand a sense of beauty and style. Yangzhou has chosen to embrace slowness and coexistence between the new and the old, making everyone who lives here or passes by feel at ease and happy.

Yangzhou | 3 Days 2 Nights Travel Guide: The Most Authentic Experience to Avoid Pitfalls||| For a detailed graphic version of the Yangzhou travel guide, you can check out my previous videos. 📍Accommodation: First choice is near Wenchang Pavilion, close to Dongguan Street, Ge Garden, and He Garden. Economy hotels cost about five to six hundred during holidays. However, if the hotel is next to Dongguan Street, it's recommended to take a taxi on the adjacent main road to avoid traffic jams. 🚗Transportation: Mainly walking and taking taxis. Before going, I heard that the drivers' service attitude was not good, but in reality, all I met were fine, and I never encountered a situation where I couldn't get a taxi. However, taxi fares are more expensive than I thought, only slightly cheaper than Shanghai. When I went to play in the neighboring town of Zhenjiang, I found the taxi fares to be very cheap. 🍚Food: Jiangjiaqiao: Avoid this place, it's particularly bad in my opinion, with a strong taste of rapeseed oil overpowering the freshness of the meat, and the noodles are not chewy, but it's very cheap. Xiao Zhun Shi: Four dishes for over 200, lion's head meatballs and dry silk are mediocre, Yangzhou fried rice is dry and tasteless, crab tofu only has the taste of rapeseed oil. Yechun: Average, not bad but nothing surprising. Fuyu Dessert: An internet-famous shop, just tastes like normal dessert, mainly good for taking pictures. 7 Eat 8 Bar: Not bad, on the pricier side, four dishes for 382, scallion roasted opium fish is delicious, Yangzhou fried rice is also good. Maybe I didn't do my homework on food this time, tasty Yangzhou dishes are either hard to find or expensive. Play: Grand Canal Museum: A must-visit, very enjoyable, interesting, even a quick visit takes 4 hours, it can get very hot with many people, wear light clothing, not recommended for those with particularly poor physical strength. Ge Garden: Ticket price 48 yuan. The garden is more beautiful than the residence, which is more common in large households, but it has many rooms. He Garden: Ticket price 48 yuan Opposite to Ge Garden, the residence is more attractive than the garden, perhaps because I went when nothing was blooming, but the residence is indeed very distinctive, a blend of Chinese and Western styles. Before visiting Ge Garden and He Garden, it's best to learn some history and anecdotes, and if possible, get a guide, you can finish the tour in under an hour. Slender West Lake: Ticket price 100 yuan Recommended to enter from the south gate and exit from the north gate, go in the afternoon to catch the sunset, and if willing, wait for the night view. To save time and energy, take a boat after entering the south gate, electric boat 50 per person, about 15 minutes, get off at the 24 Bridge and walk back, exit from the south gate Pishi Street: An internet-famous street, suitable for girls who like to take photos and check-in. Caiyi Street, Dongguan Street: I'm not very interested in such commercial streets, too many people, feels messy, not recommended to spend too much time browsing Wenchang Pavilion, Siwang Pavilion: Just take a glance while taking a taxi or when passing by nearby, they are just landmark buildings 🌟Summary: Still, as Li Bai said, 'to experience the fireworks in March in Yangzhou,' when the flowers haven't bloomed, Yangzhou always seems to lack something. Also, there are indeed many people, and the cost of living is not cheap. There's a high chance of hitting a bad Huaiyang cuisine restaurant, so do more homework before going.

Pishi Street was the fur market of ancient Yangzhou city, and now the street is lined with green trees and shops that have an antique charm. Compared to Dongguan Street, it is less crowded and has a more quaint and fresh atmosphere. 🌞 Suitable for daytime visits There are many cultural and creative shops, toy stores, and cafes The shop decorations are exquisite, making it a great place for taking photos Huaiyang cuisine is not very common on this street Instead, there are a variety of delicacies from different places So coming to Pishi Street Is mainly about wandering around and taking photos📷 The super photogenic 'Yangzhou' sign is right here ⏰ Visiting time: 1 hour Taking a taxi or bus is very convenient

Located in Linyi, Shandong, a six-day and five-night self-driving tour guide. The total cost for two people is 3288 yuan. The first stop : Gaoyou. Gaoyou in Wang Zengqi's pen, a national historical and cultural city, the hometown of Chinese poetry. This is a small city full of historical charm everywhere, suitable for slowing down and walking around. Must go: Wang Zengqi Memorial Hall - South Gate Street - Yucheng Post - Zhen Guo Temple (lots of rabbits) - Second Bridge to watch the sunset Must eat: Yangchun noodles, wontons (only four or five yuan, cheap and delicious) Wang tofu, Pu Bao meat. Recommend People's Bridge Dumpling Noodle Shop and Fu Gong Bridge Noodle Shop. It feels like any noodle shop is very friendly and reliable. Second stop: Yangzhou. 'Ten miles of long street markets are connected, and you can see gods on the moonlit bridge', walk around the ancient commercial street, listen to Yangzhou tunes, drink morning tea and eat sugar water, feel the market atmosphere, it is an unprecedented experience for northerners.

This is a small town nestled in the deep mountains, with ancient trees reaching the sky, streams rushing, smoke rising, everything is vivid and powerful and ancient and distant, as if pulling people back to childhood. (On the way to self-driving Chaji, the scenery of Xiaochuan Tibetan Line is also beautiful).

🚗Leather goods have always been a symbol of fashion and elegance. In the historically prosperous Yangzhou, of course, there can be no lack of leather goods business, and finally formed a "leather goods street". This street is Pishi Street. In the Yuan Dynasty, Pishi Street was called Majunying Sipu South and Majunying Sipu North, and to equip the horse army, of course, there can be no lack of leather goods, thus, Pishi Street and leather goods have a source. Before the construction of the new city in the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, the location of Pishi Street was still "half village and half city outskirts". In the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, the place where Pishi Street was still a low-lying area. Yangzhou literati Lu Biyou recorded in a poem after visiting Xingjiao Temple (in May 1949, Xingjiao Temple and Wanshou Temple were changed to the new campus of Yangzhou Normal School, and in 1968 it was changed to Yangzhou No. 5 Middle School, now Tianjiabing Middle School): The ancient temple is desolate and the green water bay, the autumn flood enters the door and the moss is gone. It can be seen that at that time, Pishi Street was crisscrossed with ditches and canals. In the Qing Dynasty, Pishi Street developed into a leather goods market. Although they are all engaged in leather goods, Pishi Street has the distinction of South Pishi and North Pishi, with Zhenjun Lane as the boundary. South Pishi is the southern section of Pishi Street, selling soft leather goods such as leather coats and hats, horse hoof sleeves, leather blankets and mats; North Pishi is the northern section of Pishi Street, selling hard leather goods such as belts, boots, and whips. 🚗The entire street runs from south to north, about 700 meters long, connecting Guangling Road to the south and Wenchang Road to the north. The ancient buildings on both sides of the street with green bricks and black tiles, the tall wall towers, the grand gates, can vaguely see the shadow of the bustling Pishi in the past. It has also become an important place for tourists to take photos and leave memories. Friends who like to take pictures can take a few portraits with a travel shoot. 🚗The shops on both sides of the street are somewhat casual in their layout, and the decoration style is even more varied, almost covering all the styles we can know in the world. But the key point is that you look at these shops' decorations casually, but they have their own unique personality, full of creativity, which is most loved by fashionable and trendy young people. If you are going to Yangzhou, you might as well go to the Pishi Street area for a stroll, I believe you will also like it here.

Fushengji book Café (浮生记) on Pishi street in the old town of Yangzhou is my favorite Café in Jiangsu's Yangzhou. The boss travelled a lot all over the world and has a great collection of books and travel books. 🏚️📚☕🎂 The Café serves drinks and some basic sweets like cake. It's perfect for sitting inside or outside on the little yard. Prices are average, around 25-30 RMB for a coffee. 📬 The Café also has a very nice collection of Yangzhou post cards. You can send them from them Café to all over the world. There is no extra fee and the owner brings it to the post station. #bucketlistreboot #yangzhou #bookstore #cafe #chinatravel #jiangsu #oldtown

In the Qing Dynasty, Pishi Street is a leather goods commercial street in Yangzhou City. It mainly sells leather goods such as leather coats, horseshoe sleeves and leather blankets. Nowadays, Pishi Street is connected to Wenchang Road in the north and Guangling Road in the south. It is a slow life in Yangzhou. Represents a block. Biancheng Bookstore, Fushengji... A small shop with a fresh decoration exudes a strong literary atmosphere. You can hang out for an hour here, read a book in the bookstore, shop in a literary shop, and come here with friends to take photos of the United States and the United States.
