There is a pedestrian street named after "cat" in Xiamen, which is warm and romantic

The Cat Street is over a hundred meters long, not large in area, close to Xiamen University and Nanputuo Temple. The earliest visitors here were students from nearby universities, and it gradually developed into a popular street in Xiamen, attracting many tourists to come and take photos. Walking into Cat Street is like entering a world entirely belonging to cats. There are many cultural and creative shops, handicraft shops, and cafes on both sides of the street, almost all related to cats. The cute little cat shapes are enough to melt people's hearts just by looking at them. Perhaps due to limited living space, or perhaps because the characteristics of cat owners are more suitable for "lazy" people, compared to raising dogs, more and more people have been raising cats in recent years, and those born in the 90s and 00s have a particular fondness for cats. This cute little animal does not require much space, nor does it need to be walked in the morning and evening, it's simply too considerate. When visiting Xiamen, stroll around the artistic Cat Street in this artistic city, adding a touch of joy to this trip. Simple graffiti seems to be casually created by people who come here. Walking on Cat Street, this is the feeling you want, advocating a carefree attitude. The layout of the block is of course dominated by "cats". Funny and cute comics paired with popular internet memes and buzzwords always bring a knowing smile to young people. The small sunken plaza gathers the main shops in Cat Street. In the "Cat Petting House", you can drink coffee, bask in the sun, and pet cats. You can see British Shorthairs, American Shorthairs, and Ragdolls at will. In the museum, you can learn about the unique cat culture. It can be said that Cat Street is a paradise for cat lovers. There are many fun things in the Cat Museum, including various cat-related cultural and creative products. Historical figures in the portraits have put on the "cat" coat, can you guess who they are? It's more than appropriate to buy some souvenirs or cultural and creative products on Cat Street to take home and give to friends. Whether it's cushions or dolls, cups or home decorations, each is cute and soft, making people love it. Of course, Cat Street should have real cats in charge. In fact, this street was originally a small fishing village. People would air-dry fish and various seafood in the open air. To prevent the seafood from being stolen by rats, the fishermen raised cats, and since then, cats have become good helpers in guarding the fruits of the fishermen's labor. When visiting Xiamen, after visiting famous attractions such as Gulangyu, Xiamen University, and Nanputuo Temple, remember to check in at this adorable Cat Street that leaves people speechless.
