📍 Gongshu District, Hangzhou
✨ Xiaohe Night Market is a local night market hidden in an ancient district. It's not overly touristy, but it feels like you're browsing for delicious food with friends in a rural town, yet it's full of charm.
✨ The atmosphere is lively after sunset. The dim lights, the hustle and bustle of people chattering, the smells of fried, grilled, and roasted food, and spices mingle with the fresh scent of herbs in the air, making for a truly enjoyable stroll.
✨ Strolling here is leisurely. There are souvenir shops, local fashion clothing, and cute little bags to choose from. There are also tea and juice shops to cool off along the way.
✨ If you have the chance, I recommend coming in the late afternoon or evening for the best atmosphere—people start to flock, restaurants are fully stocked, and the lights and strings of shops are ready for beautiful photos.
