Strolling through Xiabafang, Encountering Dongguan's Artistic Moments

Recently, I had the opportunity to go on a business trip to Dongguan, China, and I took the chance to visit Xiabafang in Batou Community, Wanjiang Street. This is a historic and cultural district filled with artistic vibes. Walking slowly along the cobblestone alleys, the faint aroma from the cafes under the arcades and the gentle sound of pages turning in the bookstores made me slow down and savor the tranquility and leisure. As night falls, the street lights illuminate, and Xiabafang takes on a warm and dreamy atmosphere. Art shops, handicraft galleries, and unique bars are scattered around, and the evening breeze carries a sense of relaxation and freedom, making it hard to leave. • Address: Batou Community, Wanjiang Street, Dongguan City • Recommended visit time: 2-3 hours • Admission: Free
