宽窄巷子

Kuanzhai Alley retains a group of courtyard streets and alleys in the original Mancheng area of Chengdu's old city. It has now been transformed into a pedestrian commercial area integrating teahouses, snacks, retail and cultural displays. This is a suitable place to observe the scale of the courtyard and the commercial use of heritage, but one should not mistake the uniformly operated tourist block for an unaltered residential alley.

喜洲古镇

Xizhou lies about 20 kilometers north of Dali Old Town. Traditional Bai homes, village streets and surrounding rice fields make it a quieter place to explore local architecture and rural life. The fields change color with the seasons, and sites such as Sifang Street and the Yan Family Courtyard reward a slower visit.

中央大街

Central Street Central Street is located in Daoli District. It starts from Jingwei Street in the south and ends at the Flood Control Memorial Tower in the north. It is about 1,450 meters long and paved with about 870,000 "bread stones". It is the first pedestrian street in Asia and is also known as the open-air "Architectural Art Museum". European-style buildings such as Baroque, Renaissance, and Eclecticism are gathered on both sides of the street. Among them, the Madier Hotel (1906), Matsuura Bank, and Wanguo Bank are all century-old buildings, which condense Harbin's modern history of opening up to the outside world. Public transportation: Metro Line 2 "Central Street Station" is within walking distance, or you can take the bus to "Central Street" or "Flood Control Memorial Tower" station.

屯溪老街与黎阳片区

Tunxi Linjiang Commercial Street preserves the Huizhou shophouse style while serving the contemporary city; adjacent streets and alleys can expand the horizon beyond souvenir retail. You can better observe the local rhythm in the early morning or evening, but the upstairs and backyard are still private unless open.

青岛啤酒博物馆

Located at the former site of Qingdao Co., Ltd., a German beer company founded in 1903, it is divided into Hall A (a century-old history) and Hall B (brewing technology). You can see the real filling line and drunken cabin.

平江路

Pingjiang Road runs along the river through the relatively well-preserved old city area of Suzhou. Narrow bridges, laneways, courtyard houses, small museums and residents' lives continue the parallel relationship between streets and rivers in the historical map. The main road is obviously commercialized, but the urban fabric that is quieter and continues to be used as a community can still be seen in the branch lanes.

大理古城

The ancient city of Dali is located between Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake. The current checkerboard pattern was mainly formed during the reconstruction of the Ming Dynasty, and also inherited the earlier history of Nanzhao and Dali Kingdom. The city gates, preserved courtyards, religious buildings and everyday streets and lanes tell a better story about the ancient city than the liveliest commercial main street. Its value also lies in serving as a base for understanding the historical layers of Bai culture and local politics.
