This antique street in Hubei is expected to become the next hot spot

When I went home for the Chinese New Year this time, I found that Suizhou has changed a lot. A new popular street has opened, Caodianzi Street, which feels very similar to the Kuanzhai Alley in Chengdu! The Spring Festival atmosphere is super strong, and it is estimated that it will become the next internet celebrity check-in spot in Suizhou, Hubei! Caodizi Street Historical and Cultural District 🏯Address: Xicheng Street, Zengdu District Currently, North Street has officially opened to the public on January 1 (from Handong Road to Shunjing Avenue), and South Street is ready to go. The block starts from Handong Road in the north and ends at Shunjing Avenue in the south, with a total length of about 950 meters. It is divided by Jieguan Bridge. North Street is a historical and cultural block, while South Street is planned as a commercial development area. Passing through the tall "Nanguan" archway at the entrance of North Street, a row of ancient dwellings with distinctive door decorations 😸 come into view. The single business model that used to be dominated by agricultural products and special snacks has now added a rich cultural atmosphere while retaining Suizhou specialties. 🎁Check-in tips: ✅Must-experience for the Spring Festival: get free handwritten Spring Festival couplets, stamp cultural and creative stamps, play retro games, and enjoy the festive atmosphere! ✅There are more than 140 businesses in the block, including the intangible cultural heritage food Hufului Mahua, Shuita slices, lard cakes, Lishan fermented bean curd and other types of Suizhou "old flavors". Many businesses also thoughtfully attach the historical stories behind the food at the door of the store. At the same time, new business formats such as coffee, flower arrangement, and desserts have moved in. ☑️Photography paradise: red lantern wall, ancient street scene, folk installations... the nine-square grid is not enough! ☑️Protect Aboriginal Buildings: The names of the original residents are clearly visible on the exterior walls of these buildings. During the renovation, the team carefully preserved the walls and decorations that were still usable, and restored the damaged parts to their original state with protection as the primary consideration. The missing parts were accurately restored after careful examination and verification by consulting multiple images, texts and other materials. ✅Spring Festival activities: There are also beautiful light shows, Hanfu parades, and intangible cultural heritage markets during the Spring Festival. There are also raffles for Hanfu performances, and children will receive vouchers for performing on stage. It's quite interesting! Go check in now while there’s still no crowd!
