Shunchang Street at Shantou Small Park features a coffee culture street. It has created a coffee + cultural tourism district, attracting many tourists to visit.
Shunchang Street, one of the earliest commercial areas in Shantou, has been meticulously renovated, integrating Southeast Asian style with Chaoshan (including Shantou city, Chaozhou city and Jieyang city) culture. It has become a comprehensive district that combines culture, art, leisure, and entertainment.
