A street name, a story of triumph and loss.

Jinbang Street in Shunde was once home to the imperial exam of China's "golden roster" – where successful candidates saw their futures change overnight. One list, countless emotions: joy and celebration for some, heartbreak and sorrow for others.

Today, the energy feels different. The street now buzzes with flavors, but the true highlight is its buffalo milk delicacies. These rich, creamy treats draw food lovers from near and far, giving the street its well-known name – Jinbang Buffalo Milk Street.

Join Absalom Absalom from Namibia as he explores this historic street in Guangdong's renowned "City of Gastronomy."
