Stop 3

Walking in the old streets of the Three Gorges, it is like entering the time tunnel, connected with the continuous red brick arcades, antique buildings, it is alive and well, and you will never forget. The lettering on the old street house represents the surname, name, industry or store number. In the industry, the dye shop with the word "dye" is the most; while the store's storefront frame is engraved with the name, store number or surname. A propaganda technique commonly used in doing business. The graphic decoration on the mountain wall still has the meaning, such as the vase symbolizing the meaning of "peace", and the gossip is to avoid evil. It still retains the look of the past; selling cool water, selling brushes, selling sweet cakes, the merchants here sell nostalgia. If you like historical sites, you should also check out the Three Gorges Temple, which is known as the "Oriental Art Hall", and the memorial hall of artist Li Meishu who is trying to repair the temple.
