Stroll down Hechang 5th Road at dusk where century-old arcade buildings transform into cinematic scenes under amber lights. The aroma of ginger milk pudding from Cantonese dessert shops mingles with specialty coffee from hipster cafes, creating a seamless blend of tradition and modernity. Rent a bike to cruise through this Republican-era architectural wonder, and don't miss taking home a bamboo lantern from the artisan workshops preserving intangible cultural heritage.
