(260114) -- KUNMING, Jan. 14, 2026 (Xinhua) -- Tourists visit the Cuihu Park in Kunming, southwest China's Yunnan Province, Jan. 13, 2026. Cuihu Lake is both a signature landscape of Kunming and a testament to the city's memories, surrounded by historical legacies such as the former sites of the National Southwestern Associated University and Yunnan Military Academy. Much like other older urban neighborhoods, the vicinity of Cuihu Lake had grappled with diminishing business vitality. The pressing challenge lies in revitalizing these dormant streets while preserving their historical essence and avoiding extensive demolition and construction. In recent years, a "cultural corridor" has been created around the lake, linking scattered historical and cultural sites while capitalizing on the thriving coffee industry. Cafe-centered boutique retail businesses have been established along this corridor, shaping an inclusive public space where people can feel free to take a walk, enjoy coffee and immerse themselves in reading. This endeavor has successfully infused the old neighborhoods with new waves of consumption. "Going to the Cuihu Lake for coffee" is now trending among local residents and tourists alike.
