Introduction

The history of this place can be traced back to the Jin Dynasty, and it flourished during the Tang and Five Dynasties period, reaching its peak during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Today, it is still one of the historical landmarks in Chinese cities, preserving the original form of the Li Fang system. The area consists of three Fangs, seven lanes, and a central street, hence the name "Sanfang Qixiang". The entire area is filled with narrow alleys, quaint white-walled and tile-roofed houses, and crisscrossing Fangs and lanes. Ancient stone slab roads are paved, and each Fang and lane entrance is marked by a stone-carved archway. Today, this place is home to many well-known delicacies and traditional crafts, making it an ideal place to learn about the hometown of celebrities and taste unique snacks. It has great tourism value.
