As one of Chengdu's cultural business cards, Kuanzhai Lane has to talk about its history. The words Shaocheng can be seen everywhere around Kuanzhai. Kuanzhai was an important part of Shaocheng in history and was also known as Mancheng. Mancheng is an imperial city built by the Qing court for the Eight Banner Soldiers and their families. It is composed of streets and alleys on both sides with the current Lower, Middle and Upper Street of Changshun as the axes. On the map, it looks like a centipede. Changshun Street is the body of a centipede, with centipede feet on both sides. The General's Yamen is the centipede's head, which is the wide and narrow area today.

Kuanzhai is the epitome of Chengdu's market culture and the most completely preserved historical building complex in the surrounding area. It consists of three alleys: wide, narrow and well. Among them are also interspersed with several alleys connecting the three alleys. Photographers should not miss it.

Walking around the width and width of the afternoon and checking in, the warm sunshine shines on the streets and on everyone's faces. The courtyard houses with blue bricks and gray tiles, and the stars swaying in the shade, the prosperity and excitement of the past seem to emerge again.

Chengdu spares no effort to maintain the image of a tourist city, and the renovation and upgrading of streets and alleys around the wide and narrow areas are constantly underway. For example, Guihua Lane, which was previously named by CCTV, etc. We check in on Paulownia Tree Street, Xiaotong Lane, which is dubbed the most literary streets in Chengdu, and Kuishinglou Street, one of the four major food streets in Chengdu. We also pass through other streets and alleys worth taking a photo.

📌Tips：
1. kuanzhai alley
The wide and narrow check-in, small shops on the street, and some gates along the street are also good. It is easier to produce films with fewer people in the alleys. Such as City Life, Green Garden, Panda House, Wide Path, etc.

2. Zhijishi Street, Paulownia Tree Street
The extension of Zhiji Stone Street is very good, and it clicks on the roadside. There are many creative shops of various types on Paulownia Tree Street, and the door is also very beautiful. Recommended store names: Wujian, Chenli, Geng Yue, Jin Sanshun Barbecue, No Relief Grocery Store, and an unknown Japanese wine shop that is also good for taking photos. On both sides of the alley of Paulowu Street Primary School are paintings by brightly colored children, the entrance of the primary school and the sidewalk, and a shop selling stationery opposite it. Check-in and taking photos are very good.

3. Zhazi Street, Xiaotong Lane
The creative shop in Xiaotong Lane is more literary and has better light than Paulownia Tree Street. Due to the lot of roadside parking, the filming is more difficult. It's also good to take small scenes.

4. Kuixinglou Street
As one of the four major food streets in Chengdu, Kuixinglou Street is still worthy of recognition for its ability to survive here. Compared with the popular Internet Maoxiao Hot Pepper (Kuixinglou Street Store), I prefer spicy beef and spicy stewed pork. It feels like you are sitting at a small table on the street and chewing. Later, a Sichuan food restaurant where I ate with friends also tasted good.

Later, I went to eat at Taolin Restaurant (Sichuan cuisine) with my friends. The taste was also good.
