Overview
Dongjiaojiyi, meaning "Eastern Suburb Memory," is one of Chengdu's most fascinating urban transformations. Once a cluster of Soviet-influenced state-owned factories from the 1950s, it has been reimagined into an open-air creative district full of music venues, art spaces, coffee shops, and indie boutiques.
We'll explore the history of the site, how it shaped Chengdu's industrial identity, and how it was preserved rather than demolished. The brick chimneys, factory halls, and vintage signage all remain, giving the place a totally unique atmosphere.
We'll also visit standout coffee spots, local artisan shops, and cultural venues, with plenty of hidden corners and photo spots along the way.
Highlights include: industrial heritage, creative district exploration, specialty coffee, local art and design shops, photography spots.
