Wutian Old Street, which recreates the prosperity of the ancient market town by the Tang River

Wutian Old Street in Ou Sea opened on May 1, 2023. A historical and cultural block full of the charm of the Jiangnan water town is recreated by the Tang River. With the charming scenery of the Tang River and the long-standing water town culture, it attracts countless tourists. The Tang River is sparkling, and the clear river water flows slowly. The main stem of the Tang River divides Wutian Old Street into east and west sides, with convenient transportation due to the surrounding rivers. Walking on Wutian Old Street, with green bricks and black tiles, traditional houses from the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China are connected along the bank, scattered and orderly. The drip tiles are carved with auspicious patterns, the quiet and exquisite carved beams and painted buildings are full of ancient charm, and the strings of red lanterns all remind people of the prosperity and tranquility of Wutian Old Street in the past. Riverside arcades, wharfs, and lanes are unique, and 'banyan, pavilion, bridge, temple, water street' can be seen everywhere in the block. The highest building in the entire block, 'Kuixing Pavilion', has flying eaves and corners, which are particularly eye-catching with its ancient style. Standing at the corner of the old street, it seems to hear the bustling sound of merchants gathering and ships shuttling in the past, and it seems to see the lively scene of people coming and going at the Tang River pier in the past years..... When night falls, Wutian Old Street becomes particularly moving. The lights illuminate the ancient buildings and cast different shadows. The old street at night is filled with a romantic atmosphere, as if time has stopped here, immersing people in a different kind of heart field. Wutian Old Street
