Spicing up Chengdu's calling card to the world
Another preferred destination is Yulin Street. Made popular by the song Chengdu by Zhao Lei, the street is home to small bars and a food paradise featuring scrumptious barbecue and hotpot, skewers, roasted rabbit and crayfish. The dozens of streets and lanes are home to cozy outlets where you can find everything from the most casual fare to luxurious dining experiences.
Xiangxiang Alley on Wangping Street is another great late-night stop for famished foodies. It offers a diverse range of cuisines, including Sichuan dishes, hotpot, barbecue, Western food, Thai food, desserts, teahouses and bars. Meanwhile, Jinli is an ancient street featuring traditional Sichuan-style architecture and Chengdu delicacies. Here visitors can also enjoy Sichuan folk and opera performances and browse souvenir shops.
