Tucked away in the bustling downtown of Chengdu lies the old street | Xizi Palace South Street

| Xizi Palace South Street.🌈 If I tell you this is near Taikoo Li would you believe me? There is still such a down-to-earth old street here retaining the warmth and bustle of human life This is Xizi Palace South Street - 🌈 I specifically looked up the origin Why is it called Xizi Palace Street 👉 In ancient times, characters were regarded as sacred objects, as they were the carriers of knowledge and wisdom. Xizi Palace was a temple dedicated to Cangjie, the legendary inventor of Chinese characters. Burning waste paper with characters, a unique repository. In ancient times, out of respect for paper with characters, people believed that discarding or contaminating characters at will was disrespectful to the deities and would bring misfortune. Therefore, there was a special place for burning discarded character paper, which was called "Xizi Palace". In many places in China, there are similar pavilions or towers used to burn character paper, commonly known as "Xizi Pavilion", while in Sichuan it is often called "Ziku" or "Xizi Palace". Sichuan has the most Ziku towers in existence, with more than a hundred scattered around the province.) - ❤️ There are also plenty of delicacies on this street 👍 Qualified old Chengdu skewers There are many snacks, such as ice jelly, rabbit heads, frozen sweet dumplings, brain flowers, crispy meat, hot pot noodles..... You won't step on any landmines You can dine in, or set up tables by the roadside, which is super atmospheric ✅ When you come to Chengdu, you must experience the leisure of Chengdu people👍
