An inaugural coffee festival has opened for the emerging international community of Qiantan in the Pudong New Area. Qiantan, or known as the New Bund, takes up 2.83 square kilometers along the Huangpu River. More 400 overseas people from over 30 countries and regions now live there.
As fancy buildings emerge, a variety of activities are also held to create an expat-friendly community. The New Bund Coffee Festival is one. The festival, held through Sunday at the Crystal Plaza, features more than 60 coffee shops and brands, including Double Win, Punchline, Finca and PACE.
