💡 Skip Chunxi Road—This Lesser-Known Route Is Way More City-Cool!

#chengdutrip No need to wake up early, walk too much, or go far! This chill route is right near Chunxi Road & Taikoo Li, perfect for a slow stroll from afternoon into the evening. And yes—it’s packed with amazing food and Insta-worthy spots! 🧋📷 🚶♀️ Route: Tangba Street → Qinglian Upper Street → Da’an Main Street → Dachuan Alley → Anshun Lang Bridge → Jiuyan Bridge 1️⃣ Tangba Street (镗钯街) Right across from Taikoo Li! Home to the famous Panda Bookstore 📚🐼. By the street sign at the entrance, don’t miss the graffiti wall full of Nezha movie characters! The whole street is full of fun indie shops, food spots, and cute corners. Highly recommend! 2️⃣ Qinglian Upper Street (青莲上街) This is where one of Chengdu’s OG viral shops is located—basically the pioneer of Chengdu’s "shop-hopping" culture. Still popular for check-ins today! Lots of cozy cafés and hidden foodie gems, and the whole street has a super relaxing, low-key vibe. 3️⃣ Da’an Main Street (大安正街) A short and sweet lane with a few small stores—most spots are super local and low-profile. 📸 Polaroid fans: check out the photo shop at the street corner! 4️⃣ Dachuan Alley (大川巷) This one’s more drink-focused—teahouses, bars, cafés—you name it. Walk to the end and you’ll hit the Jinjiang River, with Lan Kwai Fong Chengdu just across the water. 5️⃣ Anshun Lang Bridge (安顺廊桥) A must-see! Wrap up your walk around sunset and head here—it’s one of Chengdu’s iconic photo spots. ☀️ In summer, you can even hop on a boat ride along Jinjiang for a dreamy riverside view of the city. 6️⃣ Jiuyan Bridge (九眼桥) Chengdu’s famous nightlife zone—bars stretch along the riverside in a perfect line. Grab a drink 🍸, vibe to live music 🎶, and just soak up the laid-back Chengdu night. #travel
