When you follow the navigation and walk to the vicinity, you must look carefully at the cart at the intersection of the alley. It is not a store, but a small stall with a cart, which is the beautiful intersection of Yulin Lane. The grandfather (actually he looks like an uncle, not that old haha) is very enthusiastic. He chatted with me and the little sister who happened to be eating while eating. It was cold but warm in my heart. Although it was raining, fortunately the stall was open as usual so I didn’t miss it. Fortunately, it rained so I didn’t have to queue. Egg baked cake is a crispy and soft baked egg pancake rolled with salty or sweet side dishes or sauces as fillings. Shredded potatoes and fresh meat are very delicious. Another little sister who was eating lives nearby and comes to eat almost every day, which shows how popular it is. This street is very beautiful. Don’t forget to stroll after eating.

Wear comfortable walking shoes, as you'll be constantly "wow"ing and wandering into the shops. 2️⃣ Best Time: After 2 PM, when shops are open and the sunlight is soft. Continue strolling into the evening, when the lights come on for a completely different experience. You can also stop by the bistros along Yulin West Road. 3️⃣ Photography Tips: Take advantage of shop fronts, windows, and vintage bicycles parked along the roadside. Be bold and interact with the scene, pretending to push open doors or look in windows for a more lived-in feel. Film filters (like Dazz/Wake Up) are a must-have here! 4️⃣ Budget: Budget is up to you. Coffee and desserts cost 30-50 yuan per person, and meals can be excellent for 60-100 yuan per person. Vintage grocery stores really depend on your budget. 5️⃣ Prepare your mindset: This isn't a high-end commercial area, so embrace a mindset of "shopping" and "exploring," and enjoy this unique blend of old and new, and its relaxed charm. We hope this guide helps you embark on a perfect Yulin trip!
