Zhengyifang is located in the Kunming Old Street complex. While maintaining its original foundation, it has now been transformed into a commercial area, selling things like clothes and jewelry. However, there are also more literary teahouses, theaters, exhibition halls and the like.

By Tranquility |

The most amazing place for shopping is Taobao Street. It's cheaper than the one in Chengdu and seems a bit bigger! I went there three or four times and bought a really cheap piece of clothing. It was defective and shed, so it's the same principle...

By Chang Xiake |

By Strolling in the Garden |

It's just an ordinary commercial pedestrian street. We sat in the McDonald's here for a long time to recharge and organize photos.

By Apple, pear, banana |

It's just the entrance to a pedestrian street and I don't think it's anything special.

By Ye's Domain |

A city with history should preserve and revitalize this type of community. But to be honest, there is not much to do here except looking at old buildings.

I've been to Yunnan three times, and each time I've been there, I've had a blast. The scenery is stunning, and it feels like home. I really want to go back more often!

By Big Dream |

It felt like a place to have fun, but when I looked over there was nothing to see.

By Hua's daughter |

The entrance to Zhengyifang is on Kunming's pedestrian street, an old street that retains the original architectural features of Kunming. It is also called the Old Street. The street is narrow and can only be walked on, not motor vehicles. There are many shops on both sides of the street. It is an ancient place among modern high-rise buildings.

By Lonely monk |

It's just a pedestrian street with some snacks, but I think it's just average!

By Miss Stupid Fish |

Kunming Old Street is located in the city center of Kunming. Next to it is the Flower and Bird Antique Market. You can stroll around.

By Gina Song |

Nothing special, just a commercial street

By Unruly |

One of the three major landmarks, a fusion of modern and classical.

By Three Thousand Eyes |

The core area of Kunming's old city, now the core business district of Nanping Street Pedestrian Street, is a bit noisy

By Rice bread |

It's a place with some old houses next to Kunming's pedestrian street, imitating Xintiandi, but it's not very popular and doesn't have any special features. The fried potatoes are delicious! Hahahaha

By Katya Paris |

It is very convenient for shopping, leisure and dining. It is the commercial center of Kunming with convenient transportation. You can go to Jingxin Flower and Bird Market, Shengli Hall and Jinma Biji Square nearby.

A place that combines eating, drinking, and having fun, where you can enjoy the scenery and taste delicious food

By Shosen Lake |

A bustling commercial street, it's convenient for shopping and dining. It's said to be the only remaining old neighborhood with nearly a thousand years of history, blending classic and modern elements.

By Meng Meng, it's me |

The nearby Mao's Restaurant is good, and after dinner you can go to the nearby Shark Bar for a drink.

By Menalisha |

Although it is not well-known, it has local characteristics.

By Shuhui's friend |

Close to Nanping Street and not far from Xiaoximen, there are many restaurants on the upper floors of the North and South Buildings

By Zhang Jiesen |

There are many jade merchants near Nanping Street. Tourists can come here to check for leaks.

By V |

I've been there a few times and it's always crowded. It's a great place to shop, relax, and watch movies. It's a place you can visit when you're here, but it doesn't have the pedestrian or old street feel of other places.

By Traveling around the world |

It's really cheap to watch a movie in that cinema.

By Tianshan Tonglao |

I wanted to make it unique. But it got more and more outrageous. It's all just one street in Yiwu Small Commodity Market. The only real reason to go is a barbecue stall hidden in a small alley. It's absolutely delicious. Every time I go there, I have to spend 50 yuan on a meal and drink a bowl of papaya water at the entrance of the alley before leaving.

By Yu Chen |

I can only say that every city has a pedestrian street, but Kunming is particularly bad.

Another thing is, during the PX project, there was no justice under the righteousness square! ! ! !

By A single tree makes a forest |

At the intersection of Zhengyi Road and Sanshi Street is the Zhengyi Road shopping center, which is also the most prosperous area in Kunming City.

By Alex Fan |

There are many such signs on the streets of Kunming...

By Eighth Master |

It's the kind of pedestrian street that you can find all over the country. It's quite convenient for eating. There are also a few old houses on the side of Qianwang Street.

By Jingxing's behavior |

Zhengyifang showcases the elegance and luxury of European-style architecture. Its green-tiled roofs, gabled walls, and traditionally carved arches all convey a strong sense of Kunming's local culture.

By Huihui1214 |

Near the Jingxing Flower and Bird Market, there are many restaurants with a wide selection of prices, generally cheaper than nearby Baida Xintiandi. Most of the restaurants are on the upper floors, while the others are clothing stores. The shopping street below Zhengyifang is relatively cheaper and also has restaurants and clothing stores. Standing on the roof of Zhengyifang, you can overlook the old Kunming, but much of the old Kunming today has been demolished and rebuilt, and it is not as good as it was three or four years ago.

By leaf |

This landmark building in the center of Kunming is extremely bustling.

By ミJoJoaoyaoyaojiao? |

Located in the center of Kunming, there is a memorial archway corresponding to the Golden Horse and Jade Rooster Archway. It is a landmark building in Kunming. Food, drink and entertainment are concentrated here. However, compared with first- and second-tier cities, the facilities are not up to par.

They are all newly built, and there are not many real ancient buildings in Kunming city.

A bustling street full of places to eat, very commercial

By sodium |

Close to Nanping Street, in the city center of Kunming, facing the Zhengyifang Shopping Center is a pedestrian street with Kunming characteristics, with old houses and a strong local atmosphere. It is worth a visit.

By Wind dances in the distance |

I came to Zhengyifang because of its reputation. There were a lot of people and many shops, but there were very few that really interested me.

By Campbell |

The newly developed entertainment and shopping center of Kunming is adjacent to Nanping Pedestrian Street and Jingxing Street, with Renmin Middle Road on the other side. Transportation is very convenient. The four-story building has many shops on the ground floor, all of which are foreign brands. The top two floors are many restaurants and dessert shops, as well as a cinema. Surrounding it are newly built antique buildings and bars and cafes. It is a place that young people in Kunming like to go. The restaurants are crowded every day. Group buying is recommended.

By Cats have nine lives |

The Chongqing hotpot at Zhengyifang tastes really good and authentic. We all like spicy food, so the medium-spicy one was too spicy for us, but it was super refreshing.

By —Ys |

The taste is very good and authentic. We all like spicy food, but the medium spicy one is too spicy. But it is super refreshing.

This is one of the attractions on Sanyi Street. The tall stone archway is inscribed with "Zhengyifang". The area around it is quite prosperous and popular for shopping. There are a lot of people there, and it is quite lively at night!

By Hero's Toys |

Zhengyifang is a magical place. On one side are European-style buildings, a wide variety of shops and fashion. But when you turn a corner, you suddenly see an old house selling some small items that are "Kunming specialties". You can go there to buy souvenirs.

By jonquil |

There is a street next to Nanping Street. The buildings are relatively old-style and it is also a place for dining, shopping and watching movies.

Today's Zhengyifang has become a paradise for gourmet food, but I still like the Zhengyifang from many years ago.

By Grindstone |

I've been here quite a few times, but it's just average. So I wouldn't recommend it, but if you're here, you might as well check it out. It's one of the best places to shop in Kunming. But if you're from a big city and you've seen it all, I wouldn't recommend it.

By Xier |

Basically, this is the center of Kunming. It is a pedestrian street where you can buy clothes and other things you want, but you can't buy jade here. You can only buy clothes and other things here.
