It covers an area of ​​more than 300 acres, totaling 180,000 square meters. It has a long history, dating back thousands of years, and numerous relics. The historical and cultural block consists of more than 200 different buildings. It is composed of period buildings, including 18 outstanding historical and cultural relics buildings. It is the best-preserved and largest historical and cultural old street in the main city of Chongqing. The culture of the opening of the port, the culture of the Anti-Japanese War, the culture of Bayu and Chongqing, and the religious culture are all splendid here. The old street is also the location of one of the 12 scenic spots in Cuba and Chongqing - "Dragon Gate Haoyue", and countless literati and poets have written poems about it. An old street contains humanities, history, folk customs, anecdotes, religious beliefs, and major events. Every building, every door and window, every wall, every brick and tile is interpreting the story here. Longmenhao Old Street is located in the central area of ​​Chongqing's main city. It is backed by Nanshan Mountain and faces the Yangtze River. It has a panoramic view of the scenic spots in Yuzhong. It is the largest historical and cultural old street here. Thousands of years ago, there was a gap in the stone beam on the riverside of Shangxin Street on the South Bank, which was like a gate, so it was called "Dragon Gate". A wide curved lake naturally formed in the stone beam was called "Hao" in the dialect. Shaoxing in the Song Dynasty During the 19th century, the word "Longmen" was engraved on it, hence the name "Longmen Hao". These buildings of different ages are built on the mountain, at random heights. Walking there feels like walking through different historical scrolls. While practicing legs, you can also experience the local history and culture, which is very good. After visiting Longmenhao Old Street, you can cross the street to Xiahaoli Old Street opposite, with beautiful scenery and few people! On the left hand side when you come out of Xiahaoli is Shangxinjie Subway Station. Take one stop to Xiaoshizi, Huguang Guild Hall, Hongyadong, and Daijia Lane are waiting for you to unlock them one by one. Follow me to discover the beauty of mountain cities! !
