La Xi Street, originally known as ‘Garbage Street,’ was renamed for its homophonic similarity to ‘La Xi,’ which implies a festive atmosphere and serves as a reminder of the past. Today, this neighborhood is one of the most popular food streets in Hangzhou, where you can find authentic Hangzhou snacks. La Xi Street is not just a single street but a network of intersecting streets, with the main snacks concentrated on the main road, Mingde Road, featuring delicacies such as grilled squid, mixed grain cakes, bowl cakes, roujiamo, and sushi. Every evening, groups of students pour out of the campus and head here, creating a lively scene. The area is open all year round, with 24-hour access, although specific business hours may vary depending on the day.
