This warren of covered pedestrian alleys within bustling Liangzhou Market (凉州市场, Liángzhōu Shìchǎng) packs in dozens of snack stands, hawker stalls and small, hole-in-the-wall restaurants in a blaze of garish red neon signs. Lots of easy foods on a budget, from simple fried noodles (炒面, chǎomiàn) to barbecue, fried dumplings, hotpot and Sichuan dishes. Expect to be pretty well fed for little more than ¥10.
