Tianhe Yiyicheng – Festival Walk 天河又一城 – Visiting Guide 2026

Looking for where everyday locals buy their daily fashion needs, cosmetics, accessories, and local delicacies? All at lower than big mall prices? Try Tianhe Festival Walk as your first port of call. It’s an underground mall right at the metro station, that connects with other nearby shopping malls including Tee Mall, Victory Plaza, and the Guangzhou Book Center.

When the scorching sun beats down on Tianhe Road, or a sudden downpour hits the city, savvy locals and seasoned travelers alike disappear into one entrance, Tianhe Yiyicheng, or Tianhe Festival Walk (CN: 天河又一城). It’s far more than just a passageway connecting to the subway station; it’s a vast, perpetually vibrant “underground youth fashion utopia.” Here flows the youngest and most fashionable blood of Guangzhou, a perfect snapshot of the city’s trendsetting pulse and everyday vitality.

Located in the heart of the Tianhe business district, hidden deep beneath Tiyu West Road and Tianhe Road. Connecting to Tianhe City in the north, Victory Plaza in the south, Guangbai Zhongyi in the west, and Fashion Tianhe in the east, it’s also a super transfer hub for Metro Lines 1, 3, and APM Line: Tiyu Xilu Station and Tiyu Zhongxin Station.

It’s approximately 800 meters long, laid out in a cross shape. First-time visitors may get confused, so just remember that the main thoroughfare is divided into two main arteries: “Trendy Street” (east-west, mainly fast fashion and accessories) and “Food Street” (north-south, various snacks and street foods). Near Tiyu West Road Metro Station area, there are also Beauty Salons forming a hub for nail salons, eyelash extensions, hair styling studios, and affordable makeup.
