After World War II, with road expansions and the planning of the Daan Forest Park site, coupled with the proliferation of nearby school districts, universities, and cultural institutions, the Yongkang Street district shaped a "residential × cultural × culinary" urban living model. The district preserves many old house structures, some of which have been transformed into teahouses, bookstores, or cafes, presenting an atmosphere that combines historical traces with modern lifestyle. This historical background also laid the foundation for Yongkang Street's current humanistic depth. When strolling through Yongkang Street, besides enjoying the food, you can also carefully observe the old signs on street corners, retro street houses, or small parks dotted with greenery. The area around Yongkang Park is a popular spot for photography. The exteriors of shops surrounding the park, the interplay of light and shadow at alley corners, and old house window frames and plants are common subjects. Travelers who like cultural and creative selections can explore Lishui Street and parts of Jinhua Street to find small design shops and teahouses. Those who prefer a tranquil atmosphere are suited to walk into the Kang-Qing-Long living circle to experience a more serene streetscape. The district has different facets from day to night, with the afternoon to early evening being the most suitable time for strolling and savoring food.
