Small green tiles, sloping roofs, white tile ridges, fire-sealing walls, wooden doors and windows... Following the photographer's lens, we slowly walked into Taiping Old Street. This is an old street that carries Changsha's historical memory for more than 2,000 years. Jia Yi's former residence, Master Wen's old pole scale, Changsha stinky tofu... The historic Taiping Old Street exudes a strong Huxiang cultural atmosphere due to its collection of many cultural relics, famous time-honored brands, handicrafts and specialty snacks. It has become a major landmark in Changsha. The ancient city of Changsha is also hidden in these streets and alleys.

The old street is the memory of the city and the soul of the city. Looking at each other from afar, Taiping Street is in sharp contrast to the surrounding modern high-rise buildings. It is like a weather-beaten old man with the changes of history, and the endless flow of people bustling past it. Walking by side, this is an encounter that travels through time and space.

With people's attention to intangible cultural heritage, the Non-Intangible Cultural Heritage Protection and Exhibition Center in Tianxin District in Taiping Street is now particularly eye-catching. The theme is "Hunan Memory, Bright Sky Heart" and "Memory" as the main line. It is divided into three core discourse narrative fields: color in memory, taste in memory, and joy in memory. A total of 17 intangible cultural heritage representative projects such as Hunan embroidery, paper-cutting, ceramics, carving, brown weaving, Hunan cuisine, noodles, Hunan opera, and Huagu opera are exhibited. Let us see the inheritance of Huxiang culture.

Coming out of the Intangible Cultural Heritage Center, along the bluestone road, there are shouts and cries everywhere on both sides. The aroma of various snacks makes people hang down three feet. This is probably the atmosphere of fireworks in the world. If you move forward, you will see Jia Yi's former residence. Jia Yi was demoted to the title of King Taifu of Changsha during the reign of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty and lived here for three years. This residence has blue bricks and green tiles, antique, and looks cold and lonely on this busy street. However, it is also an elegant place in this busy city. Thinking about the years when Jia Yi also spent here, it can't help but make people sigh with the changes in the world.

Not far from Taiping Street, we can see Pozi Street. The Fire Palace on Pozi Street is an Internet celebrity that combines sightseeing and food. When foreign tourists come to Changsha, they inevitably have to go to the Huo Palace to taste the snacks here. But in the eyes of "Old Changsha", Huo Palace is also a kind of belief. Traditional operas are staged every day on the ancient stage. Here, you can still listen to a song leisurely. It has also become a photo sacred place. It seems that a trip to Changsha without a check-in palace would not be perfect.

Huangxing Square, located at the c coordinates of Changsha, is still a landmark in Changsha despite the wind and rain. Here, almost 80% of Changsha's online celebrity stores are covered. Not only because of its strong business district and food C-place label, but also because it is the link connecting Changsha's past and future. Just like the bronze statue of Huang Xing standing firmly in Wujiaochang, he is waiting for the prosperous streets of Changsha behind him, and also waiting for Changsha itself, which is developing and growing all the way.

Walking south from the center of the city, on the ancient city wall at the intersection of Chengnan Road and Tianxin Road is a tower of the ancient city of Changsha. This is the Tianxin Pavilion. The green creeper is covered with the mottled walls of the city walls. The sun adheres to the ancient wall bricks and the new green rattan leaves, giving it a sense of tranquility when birds sing when the world changes. When you come to Tianxin Pavilion, walk through the hustle and bustle of traffic outside, and walk into any ancient alley. You can feel the authentic flavor of old Changsha from the laughter and slapstick of people and the rising fireworks.

Next to Tianxin Pavilion is the Changsha Bamboo Slips Museum. Here, we seem to see the development of history and the progress of people's lives through those simple bamboo slips, as well as those who have been insignificant but silently dedicated in the long history.

In the south of the city, you can always see people carrying buckets to Baisha Well to collect water. We and several photographers also came here. Baisha Well first had only one look at the spring. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the water was divided into two, and then two more eyes were added. Shallow ditches guide water around the well, and a stone stands across the side close to the mountain depression, engraved with the words "Baisha Spring Water". There are stone railings at the top for easy drawing water. A tea shop called "Baisha Source" was built in the north of the ancient well, with a corridor on the south side, and the Baisha Ridge on the back of the well was completely renovated. A pavilion was built, and all trees were planted and greened around it. In the morning and evening, it is the most lively moment by the well. People collecting water together chat about daily life, as if the years are peaceful.

The First Normal School, which was once the place where Chairman Mao studied, is located at the foot of Miaogao Peak in the south of Changsha City. It has beautiful scenery and spectacular academic buildings. The architectural style of the school building is modeled after the Aoyama Normal School in Japan. The entire campus corridor connects beautiful courtyards. It is solemn, elegant, simple and comfortable. It is an architectural community that integrates Oriental cultural connotations and Western architectural styles. The memorial hall has six exhibition halls that reflect the historical facts of young Mao Zedong's study, teaching and early revolutionary activities at the First Normal University. The exhibition is rich and colorful in content and beautiful and vivid in form, benefiting every visitor a lot.

At the beginning of the lanterns, along the Xiangjiang River, you can see that the Dufujiang Pavilion is already brightly lit. Du Fu wandered in Hunan for more than two years in his later years. He spent the last years of his life in the "Jiangge" on the Xiangjiang River in Changsha. The river breeze blows slowly, and you can recite a sentence,"Drinking Changsha wine at night, and traveling in Xiangshui spring at dawn."

Tianxin District is the Laocheng District and core Urban area of Changsha. The Wuyi Commercial District, Changzhutan Commercial District, Yanjiang Economic Belt and University Night Market Street within its jurisdiction are all prime locations for developing "night economy." In particular, the "May Day Business District" has become the forefront of the development of "night economy" in Tianxin District. In recent years, Changsha Tianxin has become a popular "Internet celebrity check-in place" for foreign tourists. We have also seen the gorgeous transformation of Tianxin District through the lens of a master photographer, and we believe that the future of Tianxin District will be even brighter and more exciting.
