Shangxiajiu Pedestrian Street: A Retro Stroll Through Guangzhou’s Soul

#gzshopping

Shangxiajiu Pedestrian Street is a lively blend of tradition, fashion, and flavor in Guangzhou’s Liwan District. Stretching over 1,240 meters, it’s lined with charming old-style buildings housing bargain boutiques, shoe shops, and local eateries. I wandered past vintage arcades and sampled iconic snacks like ginger milk pudding and wonton noodles from beloved spots like Nanxin Dessert Store and Baohua Noodle Restaurant1. The atmosphere buzzed with locals and tourists alike, and the mix of old-world charm and modern hustle made every step feel nostalgic. If you’re craving authentic Cantonese culture with a side of retail therapy, this street delivers.
