Sanlitun Road has recently undergone a fresh upgrade, and a new leisure neighborhood featuring all-day restaurants and bars has made its debut.

Sanlitun Road is a street shaded by Chinese scholar trees, with TaiKoo Li on the west and the newly unveiled leisure neighborhood on the east. In the twilight, neon lights twinkle at the street-side restaurants and bars, with a constant flow of customers.

After the upgrade, the south and north sections on the east side of Sanlitun Road show distinct styles. In the south section, merchants focus on the theme of "all-day operations and urban leisure". There are well-established businesses that carry public memories and have taken on new looks. For example, a bar has transformed into a whisky-themed museum. Swing58 and Jazz.ya now offer a variety of food, alcoholic drinks, and teas along with simple meals.

Meanwhile, several new merchants representing trendy and refined lifestyles have moved in. For example, Holiland's national Parfait flagship store provides seasonal fruit desserts along with exquisite teas and alcoholic drinks, the Guangxi rice noodle restaurant named Qiheijue also offers craft beer, and there is also the first themed restaurant selling the Spanish snack Tapas in the Sanlitun business district.

On the north section of Sanlitun Road's east side, the focus is on creating a diverse urban experience with cultural art spaces, slow lifestyles, and characteristic catering, with unique custom shops introduced.
