Highlights:
The traditional cultural district of Wudian City is located among many high-rise buildings, which is in sharp contrast with the modern urban civilization. Walking into Wudian Street, walking on the ancient stone road, under the sunlight, through the alley and through the wind, stroking the bricks and stones baptized by those years, chewing marshmallows in my mouth, holding my childhood love Food, back to that carefree childhood. Each house here has its own story, and each one tells the unique southern Fujian architecture. The large and small buildings in the block are like a thick book of Jinjiang historical architecture art, from the tall Lu Sili Art Museum and Su Xianzhong Art Museum to the western-style buildings that combine Chinese and Western, and the red brick buildings of the "Royal Palace" with southern Fujian characteristics. , and then to the contemporary literature and art of Wumen Gate, you can see that the literature and art here are not separated, they complement each other, the inclusiveness of this kind of architecture makes Wudian City more diverse and attracts more and more people. arrival.
