Just a few steps and you’re at Xita. Don’t drive! Parking there is a nightmare, the subway is fast and super convenient~ 🏠 Accommodation Recommendations Cross the street after exiting the metro, and on your left is Atour Hotel. Walk a bit further and you’ll find All Season Hotel. The location is perfect! Just a short stroll downstairs and you can start your food and shopping spree—lazy people’s dream! 📸 Must-Visit Hidden Gems 1️⃣ Huguo Yanshou Temple: This is an ancient temple dating back to the 5th year of Chongde! The red walls and gray tiles give it such a vibe~ Come in the morning to light incense and pray, and try the vegetarian lunch (don’t waste food, please!). There’s also a cultural coffee shop at the temple entrance, perfect for photos that will blow up your social media! 2️⃣ Xita Snack Street: A foodie paradise hidden in a small alley! Locals come here often, full of authentic atmosphere! Korean side dishes, rice cakes, marinated crab, rice sausage… all traditional Korean ethnic foods, and the best part is you can try almost everything before buying! Taste first, buy later, no risk at all, and you can even vacuum pack to take home—so thoughtful! 3️⃣ Xita Korean Style Street: The architecture is all Korean ethnic style, full of exotic vibes! Great for photos during the day, and even better at night when the lights come on. You can easily capture K-drama style shots. If you love photography, you must come! 4️⃣ Hanbai Shopping Mall: My treasure shopping spot! The second floor is full of Korean product stores, and the third floor is a huge Korean supermarket with spicy ramen, Korean snacks, kimchi, face masks… everything! Prices are cheaper than buying from agents. I always buy a ton and enjoy Korean snacks freely! 🍜 Must-Try Food for Foodies This Wasabi House is my absolute favorite. Listen up, sisters! These picks are foolproof! ▪️ Honeycomb Rice Wine: Who can resist a whole honeycomb scraped into rice wine? It tastes sweet with honey crystals, very low alcohol, perfect for chatting with your besties while sipping~ ▪️ Wagyu Fuji: Meat lovers, look here! The marbling on the beef is insanely beautiful. Grilled to medium rare, juicy with every bite. Dip it in wasabi sauce, and it’s so fragrant I spin around in delight! ▪️ Wasabi Pork Belly: Thick-cut pork belly coated with freshly ground wasabi paste. One bite hits your brain with a spicy kick, addictive and irresistible! ▪️ Cheese Chicken Feet Spicy Ramen: Sticky chicken feet + creamy cheese + super spicy ramen. It’s so spicy you’ll be gasping but can’t stop eating. Afterward, have some honey roasted vegetable bread to cool down the heat~ ▪️ Honey Roasted Vegetable Bread: The baguette is crispy and toasted, spread with honey and roasted veggies. The sweet and salty combo is amazing and perfect for soothing your spicy tongue! ⚠️ Lessons Learned the Hard Way Don’t expect too much from the snack street environment; it’s just a down-to-earth alley, but the food is truly abundant! Make sure to taste the rice wine before buying! The authentic ones have sediment, which means more rice mash and stronger rice aroma~ You’ll be walking a lot! Wear comfortable shoes or your feet will hurt and you’ll cry! If you want great photos, rent a hanbok! When the lights come on at night, your photos will be legendary!
