Snap' Description

Ditch the generic commercial streets of the lower valleys and follow the vertical stone pathways of Dayan up into the aromatic lanes of the Xinhua Hillside Coffee Strip. Packed with boutique, independent espresso bars built inside fully restored timber residential homes clinging precariously to Lion Hill, this lane is the premier spot to enjoy local Yunnan single-origin coffees.
