On a rainy day, alone with a camera and an umbrella, I went to the Guanlan Ancient Market in Longhua, which is an old street with Hakka characteristics. There are a few small streets, many buildings are still under construction, not many shops are open, there are a lot of stalls, and perhaps because of the rain, there weren't many people, it was quite quiet. It's very suitable for a leisurely stroll. The ancient town is not big but very photogenic. I don't like going out on rainy days. Rainy days are for staying home and listening to music, for missing someone. Waiting for the day when the rain stops and the sky clears, when I've gathered enough longing, With the overflowing longing, rush to the person you want to see, today I briefly like this rainy day. Like waiting for romance amidst the mess of life.

As one of Shenzhen's 'Four Great Ancient Ruins', the architectural complex along the streets of Guanlan is filled with an ancient charm. The block is not very large, but there are quite a few check-in spots: 🏛 Arcade buildings 📷 Check-in wall: Love Longhua landmark, Face mask umbrella wall, Flower girl 🍽 Langu Pavilion (Charity Restaurant) P8 ⛩ Guanlan Ancient Temple 🖼 Guanlan Art Gallery 📍 Location: Guanlan Ancient Ruins 🚇 Navigation: Exit B of Guanlan Station, about a 10-minute walk 💰 Ticket: Free 💡 Tips: There is also a printmaking village nearby, which is also an ancient village. You can visit both in one afternoon – Guanlan Ancient Ruins

Unexpected little surprises, the previously researched 'Shangwei Village' was a letdown, casually opened the navigation to see what else nearby could be 'artistic', Guanlan Ancient Market and the Printmaking Village are about the same distance, I've been to the Printmaking Village many times, but never had Guanlan Ancient Market in my sights, alright, let's go take a look. 🚉Transportation strategy: Directly navigate to Guanlan Ancient Market, follow along Guanlan River for quite a distance, passing the main entrance of the ancient market 'Maibu Street', there's a large road sign directing to the parking lot, after all, it's not a very popular spot, parking is quite relaxed, very good. 👍Most recommended: The ancient market is mainly two or three streets, not big, but it still has an artistic vibe, several main photo spots are quite nice, the national trend style of the coffee shop atmosphere is well created, and the coffee is also good, worth a visit. The entrance of the bookstore next door is also very comfortable, and the beauty on the wall opposite is basically photographed by everyone who passes by. 🌟Highlights and features: Just drinking coffee, casually snapping photos with my phone, a few handsome men and beautiful women in ethnic costumes walked down the street, I thought to myself, wearing this and taking photos would really give off a Yunnan-Guizhou vibe. After sitting enough and waiting for the sun to be less intense, I walked up the street and realized that there really was a bit of 'Maibu Street' legacy, the largest shops on the street are all ethnic clothing stores, you can buy, rent, or get makeup for photos, so that's how it is! If I had come earlier, maybe I would have dressed up and pretended to be in Lijiang .

A photo-worthy spot worth visiting--Guanlan Ancient Market The entire street is styled with ancient architecture, reminiscent of the charm found in Dali's old town. Everywhere you look is perfect for taking pictures!! Especially the light show at night, where laser images are projected onto the walls of ancient buildings. Van Gogh's starry sky is incredibly beautiful and creatively artistic, definitely worth seeing! It starts at 7:30 pm, so try to get there early to secure a good spot haha
