This National Day holiday, sip the most authentic cup of coffee in the old streets and alleys of downtown Chengdu.

On September 24, Cover News learned from the Yulin East Road neighborhood that from October 1 to 3, starting at 1 p.m. each day, the third season of the Yulin Street & Alley Coffee Season will open for three days on Yulin Fourth Lane in Chengdu. Folk singers will strum and sing beside the lane, and local café owners will set up stalls beneath residents’ apartment buildings, inviting citizens and visitors to have a coffee, hear a song, and feel the unhurried afternoon of Chengdu’s old alleys.

Yulin East Road is a benchmark area for the organic renewal of Chengdu’s old neighborhoods, characterized by “everyday life and artistry living together.” Within its layered old-lane layout, cafés, distinctive food and original creative businesses cluster together, making it a popular landmark for city walks and leisure check-ins. After two years of cultivation, the Yulin Street & Alley Coffee Season has developed its own cultural identity, winning recognition from many residents through its down-to-earth community setting, quality café owners and unadulterated neighborhood atmosphere.

This edition will break out of the fixed pattern of conventional commercial-district markets and thoroughly activate community public space. More than 20 seasoned Yulin-based café owners and distinctive neighborhood merchants have been invited to exhibit together, bringing coffee experiences and creative-goods sales into the lanes. Champion coffee brands and the popular Niushikou café GetCozy Coffee are coming; HONG Coffee, a community brand born beneath residents’ homes with a friendly character and a distinctive aesthetic, is a must; Glow Coffee, a gently healing brand run by a champion barista, is also bringing its classic flavors. Several world coffee competition champions will gather in Yulin, and through the market, roasting, mobile coffee vans and creative merchandise they will draw citizens and visitors into the deep lanes to feel both the warm everyday life and the fresh energy of the old neighborhood.
