#Zhongshan Attractions In the urban context of Zhongshan, Sixi Coffee on Sun Yat-sen Middle Road shines like a nostalgic pearl. Hidden in a century-old arcade, the moment you push the door, the curtain of time is drawn back, and the ancient and elegant charm is overwhelming. The presence of TVB Emperor Wayne Lai added a touch of star power to the event. As you step into the store, the past years are condensed into the wooden decoration and tiled floor. The open windows on the first and second floors are like natural picture frames, framing the greenery of the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall Park and the hustle and bustle of the old street in front of the door. The light and shadow flow, the aroma of coffee is overflowing, and people are in the city, but their hearts are already intoxicated. On a bright afternoon, golden light shines through the window, illuminating every corner, and spots of light dance on the table, adding a leisurely touch to the coffee tasting time. The owner has devoted his heart and soul to meticulously crafting every detail, and the antique furnishings and hand-painted murals have all become great places to check in. And that cup of unique Chinese medicine coffee can be called the soul work. It cleverly combines the wisdom of Cantonese medicinal cuisine with the mellowness of Western coffee. It tastes slightly bitter and fragrant at first, and then has a long-lasting sweet aftertaste, just like the inclusiveness of Zhongshan City. Holding a cup in hand and looking out the window, a century of splendor and modern daily life blend together here, attracting many people to rush over with their cameras. At Sixi Coffee, they can freeze their own retro moments and rediscover the true meaning of slow life.

||In the past decade, Zhongshan has been one of the cities in Guangdong that I visit most frequently. It has typical Lingnan culture, diverse cuisine, and a leisurely pace of life, which makes me feel that it is really livable. Most of the time, it is not crowded here, but with the recent opening of the Shenzhen-Zhongshan Bridge, it seems that the city has finally ushered in its "highlight moment." In addition to the newly opened shopping malls and increasingly mature attractions, the familiar but quiet shops in the past have suddenly become popular. With the arrival of autumn, I came to Zhongshan again and walked along the walking route I have always liked. I felt both familiar and surprised. 🚶Walking route: Minsheng Road - Sunwen Middle Road - Taiping Road - Hubin Road ① Sun Yat-sen Memorial Park (not big, under maintenance) ② Zhongshan Museum (P6, recommended, newly built but crowded) ③ Xishan Temple (P3, recommended, with a century-old camphor tree and an old library) ④ Yixian Lake (P5, 12, recommended, relaxing and comfortable in the sun) 😋Some food ① Suxi Coffee (P7, good coffee and cultural and creative products, not many people before🤣) ② Aiqun Restaurant (P8, traditional tea house atmosphere, but the location is slightly off and there are many people) ③ Huashenghang (P9, authentic tortoise jelly) ④ Shunyouji (P10, simple Cantonese fast food, porridge, rice, and noodles are all available) - With the development of transportation, people began to pour in, breaking the tranquility of many years. But it is worth seeing this treasure city get more attention and experience! The city is still adapting, so be more inclusive and enjoy it! - 💡: There are many people on holidays, especially in the old streets, so it is recommended to walk 📷: iPhone, Ricoh GR3 .
