Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Xiaotong Alley is one of the many "slow life" alleys in Chengdu. They are the silhouette of Chengdu's leisurely and warm temperament. Xiaotong Alley was only half an alley before 2008, and it was only opened up to Zhazi Street after Chengdu sewage treatment. At that time, it was relatively quiet here, just an ordinary alley. When Kuanzhai Alley turned around beautifully, young people began to expand outward, and the relatively quiet Xiaotong alley not far from Kuan Alley gradually became their target. A block of gray old-fashioned buildings constitute the important background color of this street. However, as long as you take a closer look, you will find that on the first floor facing the street, there are characteristic coffee houses and water bars with full of style, like flowers, enchantingly blooming among the sundry shops and hardware shops, and they are becoming more and more prosperous. . Because of these individual shops, Xiaotong Alley, which is less than 200 meters long, has gradually become a good place for young people to drink tea and talk about life, although it is hidden behind the prosperity of Kuan Alley.
