The only water bar street in the country is in Zhangjiajie, full of Tujia style and charming night scenery. Nowadays, every city in China has its own ancient commercial street. Chengdu has Kuanzhai Alley, Xi'an has Hui Street, Chongqing has Ciqikou, Tianjin has Ancient Culture Street, Lijiang has Sifang Street, Changsha has Taiping Old Street, Beijing has Wangfujing, Shanghai has Tianzifang... In fact, Zhangjiajie also has a "internet famous street" that many people don't know, which is Xibu Street.

Zhangjiajie is undoubtedly one of the best places to see mountains in China, especially the 3000 odd peaks in Wulingyuan National Scenic Spot, which is a fairyland on earth. But Xibu Street, not far from Wulingyuan National Scenic Spot, is not as famous as the online red street in other big cities.

Although this Xibu Street also has the same stone paved roads and artistic tones as other popular streets in other cities, as well as cafes and specialty bars in other popular streets, and the crowds of people in other cities, if only that, it would probably have long disappeared from people's commerce.

Fortunately, Xibu Street still has many irreplaceable features, such as being the only water-based bar street in the country and having unique characteristics belonging to ethnic minorities such as the Tujia ethnic group.

Zhangjiajie is located in the western part of Hunan Province, where over thirty ethnic groups have lived for generations. It is a place where multiple ethnic cultures gather. Xibu Street opened its doors to visitors as early as 2012, covering an area of 100 acres. Since its early opening, Xibu Street has had a very precise positioning as an ancient street of intangible cultural heritage of ethnic minorities.

The Tujia stilted houses on Xibu Street are quaint and grand, the Dong ethnic group's wind and rain bridges are romantic and colorful, the Miao village is magical and beautiful, the Bai ethnic group's three squares and one screen wall are simple and delicate, serene and magnificent, and the Yao ethnic group's Panwang Hall is mysterious and majestic... The architectural tone of the entire Xibu Street is a unified traditional Tujia residential and earth style Miao rhyme style. Even if there are modern and fashionable bars here, they will still appear culturally rich due to the festive red lanterns and quaint wooden buildings.

The lights inside the bar are dim, with flowers as the ceiling. Although it is also a bar, in the bar on Xibu Street, one can always faintly feel the unique mystery of ethnic minorities.

Wherever there is water, there is often a bridge. In the colorful night of Xibu Street, the bridge adorned with lights is dazzling, and the reflection in the stream is like a dream. I wonder if this bridge will attract visitors from the underwater world.

It's best to stroll on Xibu Street at night. When night falls, neon lights dot the sky, and everything is so beautiful that it's hard to move one's eyes. Walking on Xibu Street, you will feel the joy of drinking, singing at night, and returning to authenticity, which is the backbone of Zhangjiajie's thousand year old resilience and simplicity.

The word 'Xibu' in the name of 'Xibu Street' comes from the Tujia language and is also known as' Xilan Kapu '. It is a very exquisite handmade brocade of the Tujia ethnic group and was once a precious tribute presented by the Tusi King to the royal family. Therefore, Xibu Street has a very beautiful meaning, it is a colorful street with small streams, and also a place full of happiness.

Will the ethnic and modern clothing of the creative shops on both sides of Xibu Street make you linger? Mr. Lu Xun once said, 'What belongs to a nation belongs to the world.'. Although they all look like simple clothes, what they bring to people is the beauty and charm that only China has.

Xibu Street is full of rich ethnic customs, with patterns, carvings, and buildings of various styles scattered throughout, making tourists who come to Xibu Street linger and forget to leave. The singing of the bar and the noise of the crowd float in the sky of Xibu Street.

The Tujia stilted houses with wooden doors, windows, and upturned eaves are particularly quiet under the misty moonlight. Standing in front of the Tujia stilt house, it seems as if I can see it perched on the cliff and hanging dangerously in the sky.

The hazy lights of Xibu Street and the shimmering slate street give people a sense of hazy, dizzying, and ambiguous feeling. Under the light and shadow, people's figures curl up, the space changes, and there is a loud noise.

It is such an ancient street that perfectly combines the unique beauty and characteristics of China, with an antique charm. This is truly a beautiful thing. Xibu Street, like this ancient street, stubbornly records the traditional culture of ethnic minorities, their distant history and customs.
