Why visit Chunxi Road
Chunxi Road is the fashion hub of Chengdu and a culinary hotspot. Exploring this iconic commercial pedestrian street and indulging in local delicacies is a must-do when visiting Chengdu. Chunxi Road is not just a single street, but refers to the area east of Beixin Street, south of Zongfu Road, west of Hongxing Road, north of Dongda Street, as well as Nanxin Street, Zhongxin Street and their surrounding areas. For visitors to Chengdu, missing out on Chunxi Road would be as regrettable as skipping Wangfujing in Beijing or Nanjing Road in Shanghai. On both sides of Chunxi Road, you'll find a vibrant mix of century-old shops, trendy malls, brand boutiques, and delicious snack stalls. Famous local eateries like Zhong's Dumplings, Lai's Tangyuan, Han's Steamed Buns, and Long's Wonton all have branches here. On weekends, this area also serves as a popular leisure spot for Chengdu residents. The intersection of Chunxi Road's main street is the famous Zhongshan Square, where the bronze statue of Sun Yat-sen stands. At the northern entrance, there's also a Chengdu folk-custom relief art wall carved from granite, depicting various scenes of Tang Dynasty Chengdu, including temple fairs, flower festivals, lantern festivals, and mulberry picking.
