#Kuanzhai Alley #Chengdu #Visit #January 2023
Situated in the downtown of Chengdu city, Kuanzhai Alley (宽窄巷子), or Wide & Narrow Alleys, consists of Kuan Alley (Wide Alley), Zhai Alley (Narrow Alley), and Jing Alley. The three streets are the left part of the buildings after the chaos of war in the Qing Dynasty (A.D. 1636-1912). Still maintaining the original looks for hundreds of years, Kuanzhai Alley has been attracting millions of tourists by the typical buildings in ancient Qing style of quadrangle courtyard, Chengdu local snacks, life of old Chengdu, etc. Moreover, fashionable bars with many young singers and various restaurants are abundant in Kuanzhai Alley, making this place a combination of traditional Chinese culture and modern life.
More to Chengu then pandas ! although they are everywhere A great place to explore and see the different things going on. Lots of souveniers and people enjoying the alley.
I have been here many times and it is one of the lively neighborhoods in Chengdu. The architectural style of Ming and Qing Dynasties, historical heritage and modern business are integrated here. Shopping, eating snacks, looking at gadgets, sending postcards, very freehand.
