The Taizhou Old Street is located at the southeast corner of the ancient city of Taizhou. It is a pedestrian street in the style of the Ming and Qing Dynasties by the Fengcheng River. The street is about 600 meters long and lined with shops on both sides. Most of them are snack bars, restaurants, and local specialty stores that are closely related to the lives of local people. There is no commercial atmosphere of tourist attractions here.
On the contrary, many shops are old stores that have been in business for many years with good quality and low prices. Strolling here is very leisurely and relaxing. At the corner of the old street is a small street square. There is an ancient opera tower on the square. There are some teahouses around where you can take a break. A small stream flows by the square. There is an ancient waterwheel in the stream. Tourists coming to the old street must not miss the local delicacies that Taizhou people are proud of, such as grass stove sesame seed cakes, Taizhou shredded dried tofu, and eight delicacies from Qinhu Lake. At the same time, you can also taste delicacies from all over the country such as Yunnan cross-bridge rice noodles and Chongqing hot pot. Here, you can enjoy delicious food and also enjoy the scenery of the Fengcheng River. The taste is wonderful. Every night, the old street is even more charming against the backdrop of landscape lights. Walking about 200 meters inward from the entrance of the old street is the entrance to the Fengcheng Taoyuan scenic area. This is a theme park built locally to commemorate Kong Shangren’s writing of ‘The Peach Blossom Fan’ in Taizhou. Not far away, the Mei Lanfang Park showcases the artistic life of the Peking Opera master Mei Lanfang with various materials and objects. If time permits, it is recommended to visit both. Open all year round and open all day.Old Street
