Hefei travel guide — where to stay, what to do, and where to eat in Hefei, Anhui, China.
Hefei's nightlife is concentrated in a few districts: the Luzhoufang bar street near Sanxiaokou, Binhe Bar Street at Baohe Wanda Plaza, and the evening crowds on Huaihe Road Pedestrian Street.
The scene is relaxed and local, with live-music bars, craft-beer venues and KTV entertainment complexes rather than large international clubs.
