The 2024 Best of Jiangnan - Qingpu Coffee Manual includes cafes in villages, at B&Bs, tourist attractions, shopping malls, and neighborhoods across the district.

The 2024 Best of Jiangnan-Qingpu Coffee Culture Festival which started on April 28 has spurred the district's holiday market, the district government said on Monday.

The Yangtze River Delta coffee bazaar, a highlight of the festival, held at Zhujiajiao Watertown during the May Day holiday, also proved popular. Covering 8,000 square meters, it bought together 45 businesses and some found their stocks for four days were empty on the first day of the bazaar due to booming business.

The pet-friendly bazaar also attracted many pet owners who visited with their pets, according to the district government.

Among the Jiangnan flavors featured at the bazaar were a herbal coffee brewed by the Qing Post Office, a signature attraction of Zhujiajiao; and the Qingpu TCM Hospital. Wujiang tuzao (clay oven) coffee, and Kunshan Aozao (literarily means dirty in Chinese) noodles were also on offer.
