My second day in Hangzhou, China continued into the evening as I went on the hunt for some dynamic street food in the old town! I headed over to Hefang Street, a pedestrian-only street that has lots of shops, restaurants, live musicians, and my favorite: street food! Hefang Street wasn’t far from my Airbnb. The street was the main reason why I chose that apartment! The area is very touristy but it’s also a must-visit! I tried some snacks with peanuts and black sesame. I also saw vendors mixing tea leaves. Hangzhou is the tea capital of China, and China is the tea capital of the world! On the street, you’ll also find a huge, gold laughing Buddha, which is pretty amazing! There were even vendors making silver bracelets, others making T-shirts, some selling ice cream, and more. As I searched for the good street food, I tried some baijiu, a type of Chinese alcohol. It was really good but really strong. I also tried some peach flower flavor and a yellow one. The woman let me try just about every variety, including a delicious rose flavor and a peach flavor. Then, I finally found some food! They were skewered meat and vegetables. I was given 6 sticks for 9 Yuan, or only $1.31 U.S. I started with some moist, black mushrooms and moved on to some tasty fish balls with a little bit of spice and sweetness. Then I tried a skewer that could have been chicken and some wild mushrooms. I followed that with pork and some wontons that were soft on the outside and chewy on the inside. They were damn good! The place was super crowded and I didn’t see much street food even though I had seen some earlier. But I did find some beef and pork jerky. The beef jerky was next level and full of spice! The beef was better than the pork and it was so spicy! It was some of the best beef jerky I’d ever had! Then someone let me try a durian cake that was so good! I found a bakery and tried a mochi with a biscuit around it and lots of other snacks! There was also some amazing green tea! I saw some colorful umbrellas that I thought about getting for my kids. There were some stands with long lines, which means the food must be good, but I didn’t have time to wait, so I continued on. Then I found a guy who was blowing glass into the shapes of different animals including monkeys, chickens, dogs, chickens, dragons, and turtles! I found a guy painting some incredible masks and found a really beautiful one for 400 Yuan. I collect masks, so I was really excited to find some that were being made right in front of me! It was bright and colorful! I continued my search and found a food court with lots of different options including noodle bowls, pancakes, dumplings, and more! There were even insects, centipedes, and seahorses! I went for some tofu steaks, which cost 10 Yuan, or about $1.45 USD. It was really nice and spicy with chili flakes! The vendor added extra chilies for me, which made it even better! There were radishes and chives in it as well. It was so freaking good and so nice and soft! I also found some beef on a stick, which only cost me 5 Yuan/$0.73 U.S. for 1 skewer. I loved the spices. The beef was chewy and tender! Then I took a selfie with a fan! Then I headed over to Wushan Night Market. Even though I had already bought everything I wanted, I still wanted to check it out! After a 25-minute walk, I came across the stalls. There are 400 vendors selling iPhone cases, hats, jewelry, bags, and more. It reminded me of the Sunday night market in Chiang Rai, Thailand! There were lots of knockoff products, which I’m not a fan of! There were endless stores. I saw some Buddhas and even a vendor doing manicures!
